John, 2.6.28 will come out around January and Jaunty will probably ship with 2.6.29 but it very well might not be a good idea to use it by default for Jaunty which is what shirish seemed to be talking about. Just because it is not considered development status doesn't necessarily mean it is

At any rate, regardless of whether we use it or not, making a bug in Launchpad is not going to change the course of action. My point was that Shirish should have first checked with the handful of core-devs and kernel devs who have a good understanding of filesystem development in the kernel tree,

Hi, According to the recent benchmarking article by Phoronix, the previous two releases of Ubuntu are significantly slower than Feisty Fawn. In some cases this can be seen as up to 50% performance drop with certain desktop tasks. I can confirm that this is true in that my girlfriends desktop

Whoops, I thought you were talking about the recent article about -intel performance on x45 chips. But I see you're actually talking about an earlier article about Ubuntu performance in general: http://www.phoronix.com/vr.php?view=13022 Note that in that article they looked only at the

faster than Vista isn't hard, we want it to be faster than XP because remember, that's what most people are running. Why would they switch to Ubuntu if it's going to make their machine slower? I think performance is a very relative term. Slow for games can be great for a database. I am a lot
