Hello,
I am using OpenBSD on server since few years now, and I am very happy
with it's easy maintenance and it's stability. I want to try on
desktop, and I am having trouble.
Everything is much slower than existing Linux system. For example,
Firefox takes 3-5 seconds to start on Linux but ~10 seconds on
OpenBSD on same machine!
I have the same problem. The FFS doesn't seem to be as fast as ext2.

Most interestingly, after I moved from NetBSD to FreeBSD
(performance-wise) on my Web cluster, I found that FreeBSD, being
_faster_ than GNU/Linux, was not that much faster.
Being totally pissed off of FreeBSDs and NetBSDs opinion about 'free'
software and selling themselves as cheap whores to companies (read:
deploying BLOB) I moved (again) to OpenBSD (on _all_ machines, not just
on the crucial ones like firewalls etc).
Surprise: Performance is on par. Security is much better. Karma is
perfect :)
