basically you don't gain 5%. It is closer to 1.5% to 2.5% and this when you are running kernel code (when you are running user mode code
it is unaffected). And since 2002 machines are much bigger than the
32 meg box I used as an example the memory savings brought by a kernel
compile are still more irrelevant
What compiler? gcc-3 is supposed to have better optimization. Perhaps the numbers would be different now? -Thomas
