The difference is pretty huge: RH 2.4.20-13-7 : ~1m.10s 2.4.22 : ~1m.40s 2.4.26 : ~2m.15s 2.6.1 : ~3m.40s 2.6.2 : ~4m.00s 2.6.3 : ~4m.00s 2.6.6 : ~3m.15s 2.6.6-mm4 : ~2m.10s 2.6.6-mm5 : ~2m.50s 2.6.7-p1 : ~2m.80s (ran five times on every kernel to get approximate time listed) The question is, how can I get the newer kernels to scream like the older kernels? I have moved all files in question to the local disk to rule out network issues (though the 2.6.x kernels are faster at net access). I have run the make command in debug mode and find no differnce betHz w/8G RAM. Thank you for your assistance. Phy __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
