My (and e.g. also Andreas Klemm's) opinion is just the opposite. Especially the X server performance improved from 1.1.5 to 2.0. I've run xbench against both systems, but the server even ``feels'' much faster than the numbers are actually showing (though there's also a performance gain). | What about `time cat /etc/sendmail.cf', with identical files? | == 2.0 == 0.71 real 0.02 user 0.36 sys | == 1.x == 0.17 real 0.00 user 0.10 sys Did you by incident run pccons on your 1.1.X system? Pccons has been *way* simpler than either syscons or pcvt (though the latest pcvt is again almost as fast as [at least NetBSD's -- they still have it] pccons). -- cheers, J"org work: --- no longer --- private: joerg_wunsch@uriah.sax.de Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
