| 9 | I'm sorry to mention this again but the speed of a distribution is more than what benchmarks can show, I have seen a few benchmarks come out in the past few days that say that gentoo performace is less than satisfactory. But, I can say that having used my gentoo desktop for some time, and having used many others. I consider my gentoo desktop to be much faster and more responsive than others. The point is how fast a desktop is, is often a personal measure and not an easily quantifiable measure. |

| 11 | P.S. The init scripts and other built-in scripts are so much better that I don't care about performace under gentoo anyway. |
