Upcoming performance improvement in Linux

Post by RKz »

Mike Galbraith, one of the developers of the Linux kernel, has announced a 233-line kernel patch that can give a speed improvement between 10 and 60 times in some processes. The patch has been endorsed by Linus Torvalds and is expected to appear in the 2.6.38 kernel version.

Something to wait for, especially in small machines like fit-PC!

Yes I have you can safely apply it. The result is an more responsive system. But it is minimal...
