The point is there isn't couple of kernel patches that makes it ideal |
| 5 |
for desktops or servers. It helps in the tasks you usually use in |
| 6 |
desktop or server environments. Most of those kernel patches makes your |
| 7 |
system more responsive but it doesn't do any miracles. I recommend for |
| 8 |
both use server/desktop gentoo-sources. If you want a kernel for a real |
| 9 |
server probably you want hardened-sources. For desktop(including audio |
| 10 |
servers in you case) gentoo-sources or ck-sources. |
| 11 |
Beware that most of the patches available to tune your scheduler aren't |
| 12 |
for general use so you can expect a better responsiveness when you run |
| 13 |
xorg+firefox+xterm but you can get worst when you run apache, php, sql. |
