Sure, Phoronix' copy of bzip2/apache/etc might be slower on Fedora 11 compared to Fedora 8, but it more-or-less says -zero- about the actual performance difference between the -native- versions of bzip2/apache/etc on Fedora 8 and Fedora 11. I'm not saying that Phoronix is wrong - I am saying that his testing methodology is invalid. - Gilboa -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
