In blogs you could also read, that Win98 was faster than Win95, Win XP faster than Win2K and so on. You can also read that the fastest Solaris version is the current one. It depends on where you read, and which benchmarks under which circumstances in which environments and loads and on which platforms ... etc., done by which people ... you are looking at. I know quite some folks who always want to be running the highest version of something, whether it is economically and technically justified, or not. Come here, count numbers or take even the most primitive stop-watch with yourself, and I'm really interested if you are continuing to insist on the speed improvements. Maybe on a gamer pc, but not on a more moderate system. Don't forget to compare the memory footprint. Has the X11 memory whole problem been solved meanwhile? Is somebody working on this? How could it happen and why is it so difficult to fix it? %martin
