I would have to agree with that. I have a 400 MHz G3 iMac running 10.3.9
right now... and it can be PAINFULLY slow at times.
Let me clarify this a bit, I think.
The user experience, doing things in the GUI etc, feels slower to me
under OS X, especially Finder operations.
BUT... Actual cranking away performance, especially complex math and
such, *is* faster on OS X simply because 1) The OS' overhead is lower
and 2) the math and other libraries are superior (better algorithms,
better optimized) than OS 9's.
FWIW,
