I not a normal gentoo user. While I am impressed with gentoo and the
developers who take care of the various "Ports" I know that I get
great speed out of my binary distrobution. My main distrobution
happens to be slackware which does like fedora i486 with i686
optimizations.
Slack is fast and nimble. But noticed with some applications the
extra optimaztion that are targeted for my Pentium 4 processor Seem
to make a difference. With near identical setups between gentoo and
slackware I noticing better Frames per sec in games. Large emulation
products such as Basilisk II , SheepShaver and PearPC are snappier in
there functions. All I was saying that thing felt snappier, saying
something felt is far for sciencific benchmarks
