Most likely yes.
Although I hear mixed reports, some say it depends on the rate selection
algorithm, some claim rt2x00 in 2.6.24 is faster then wireless-testing and
others claim the exact opposite.
At the moment it is hard to tell, but I haven't collected data yet with specific
information about the used rate selection module and exact data transfer
numbers.
