FWIW my observations:

When testing a rather complex app (50 Stacks, huge amounts of XML data being 
processed)
under Kubuntu on a very decent machine (actually I got a bit jealous of what is 
under the hood 
there):

Performance is rather slow. Especially screen refreshes. Drag and Drop is
not working very well (if at all). Everything that uses inks, slows down 
performance 
terribly. This is with engine 3.x and up

Scrollbars (progress bars) are not rendered correctly. Only tested with 3.5

Everything is a little better when using Ubuntu without a k, however performance
is far from what I am used to under MacOs or Win. 

I am not complaining. I understand it is a tremendous task to support an Os the
end user has as much control about as all the Oses they call "Linux" are. You 
can make
it be a tame penguin, or a 7 headed Hydra (it lost 2 heads, when it tried to 
install its 
graphics card), with lions teeth (one of them carious, but sharp anyways), 
bears claws
and penguin feet.

Just wanted to share what I have seen.
