I agree, but.. I have recently installed debian with an em64t kernel (it was a Xeon 3.0), the thing we noticed was that booting with the em64t was much faster then with the 386 kernel.. (a difference of 10 seconds if I remember correctly!) Comparing the 'speed/performance' of the software running on it (a mailserver) was not part of our little test, so no idea on that.. cheers. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
