I will have to say the 2.6.22 kernel in 10.3 is quite responsive
compared to 10.2.OpenOffice.org writer opensin 2 seconds versus about 10
in 10.2. Both systems are athlon 64 X2, one is 3200+(10.2), the other
4600+(10.3), but the clock speed itself does not make up for the
difference between the two. The 10.3 system is also running linux raid1.
Yast is also about 10 times faster and all of the other programs are
also much faster.
