it depends really. I usually go through and remove kernel support for everything that I don't have/use. This and the processor optimizations usually give me a little bit of performance increase. The last time I did it I benchmarked quake3 before and after. There was a 15fps increase with the n

Would this really make a difference in speed/performance? Most of what I've read regarding kernel recompiles say that there's not much to be gained from it. On Tue, 23 Jan 2001 08:36, abe wrote: > with the 2.2.x series you can use PPro. If your using the 2.4.x kernel > there is a K7 optimizati

with the 2.2.x series you can use PPro. If your using the 2.4.x kernel there is a K7 optimization option. "Blomquist, Niklas" wrote: > > Hello! > > Witch kernel optimizations should I use for a AMD Athlon? > > /Niklas

Hello! Witch kernel optimizations should I use for a AMD Athlon? /Niklas

[newbie] Kernel Optimizations

Linux Mandrake 6.0 is said to be optimized for Pentium-type processors. This means that it was compiled using pgcc instead of gcc, correct? So if I wanted to compile a custom kernel (i.e. include NTFS support) I'm guessing that I should use pgcc instead of gcc, to keep the optimizations.
