What I take away from this that in certain applications a small, 10% or so, performance gain can be had w. a custom build. However, in some cases Ubuntu performed just as well if not better.
I thought it was odd they chose Ubuntu to compare against. I would think Debian testing, RHEL, or Suse would be a more appropriate choice. I've run Debian stable and now testing on my laptop for about 3 yrs. Gladly trading some of the conveniences of Ubuntu for speed, as it always seemed sluggish to me compared to Debian. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
