It's a matter of personal choice and disk space only.  I assume you 
meant to freeze Radiant because it includes Rails in its package.

They're both directories, so the speed is the same, essentially.

No.  We tossed this one around and decided that to reduce 
incompatibilities and issues with people lacking root access, etc, we 
would package Rails along with Radiant.  It saves a lot of headaches, 
even though the gem size is larger.

See above.  However, if a newer bug-fix release of Rails comes out (i.e. 
1.2.4, 1.2.5, etc) the trunk version will probably be updated to it soon 
after.
