Has anyone tried the performance of Linux?
I've seen some disk-benchmarks, and they
weren't exactly impressing, but I guess that's
due to one or more flaws/bugs in the FS.
That would definately kill the 'compile emacs'
benchmark.

I've got a 386/40 system with 8 Mb ram - can
I expect some decent performance?
