Date: Thu, 11 Apr 1996 12:42:30 -0700 From: "Amancio Hasty Jr." <hasty@rah.star-gate.com> Does the new kernel run any faster ? I have not benchmarked. This is a personal machine, so reality means nothing to me, merely perception. That having been said, I will repeat my earlier comment: It's a more noticable difference (and the more so since a make world and rebuilding emacs) than was changing from a 5x86-120GP/UMC MoBo to a P-100/Triton. The pgcc home page claims 5-30% typical speedup depending on switches, and some code size reduction. My experience is consistent with this claim, although unquantified.
