Saw an ad on CL for a Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 EX DC SLD ELD Aspherical
Macro Lens for Pentax and Samsung Digital SLR Cameras (581109)

I don't remember seeing much mention of this lens in the "normal
zoom" discusions. What's it like? It seems reasonably fast, at least
faster than my 18-250.

If it's like most Sigma lenses, it would make me barf.
I'm sorry, did I just use my outside voice? ;-0

HA! I appreciate your feelings for Sigma which you've expressed here quite frequently. I've only owned one Sigma lens: the 300/4 AF, blah, blah, blah macro and it was actually a fan-bloody-tastic lens. Except for its lack of IS I'd say it was pretty close to my Canon 300/4 IS.

But my experience may be isolated since the lens I mentioned is not in production any more and has nothing whatsoever to do with the topic of this thread.
