Gentoo x64 - Performance Shock

,----[ Quote ]
| I reported a stable 20 MB/s upload in my last post. Forget that, it’s a 
| stable 40 MB/s now that I’ve got no compile or torrent rehash running in the 
| background. And download speeds are at a stable 60 MB/s — I believe that’s 
| pretty close to what the hard drive I’m downloading to can do.   
| 
| This is just incredible. It’s still the same hardware, but the new system 
| could run circles around my old setup.

KDE 4 : The Lightest Desktop Yet ? My Experience with KDE 4.0.x

,----[ Quote ]
| While using KDE 4.0.4 I never faced hangs due excess Memory usage or
| sluggishness in the DE/OS response.. KDE 4 is fast . .The Menu,Applications
| opened pretty quickly.. The system was quite zippy and responsive... For few
| seconds I was confused that this is KDE 4 or Gnome ? To confirm the Memory
| and CPU usage I opened the System Monitor and I was shocked to see the
| results !!!
