We were able to get three identical machines where gentoo, Mandrake and debian were installed for a basic i386/i586/optimised by gentoo (-march=petium3 -pipe -O3) comparison. Nothing fancy, roughly standard installs, of similar configuration (where debian was a mixture of various versions) so that if you run the same application, on the same data using the same command, you expect to see an indication which system is faster. cpu's were celeries.

If you chose to have it enabled by default when you compiled your kernel, then yes.
