Probably not as relevant as for servers, but I'm sure the kernel does make a difference. I would assume I/O performance affects application startup time a whole lot more than process creation.

How about the kernel debug options - shouldn't that be a special-purpose kernel? -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
