.comment: The Wit and Wisdom of Linus Torvalds
Linus on the new kernel

Dennis E. Powell
Wednesday, January 31, 2001 08:10:02 AM

We're still waiting for the Vatican to officially canonize this kernel, but trust me, that's only a matter of time. It's a little known fact, but the Pope likes penguins too.

[Following Alan Cox's expressed desire to make 2.2 faster than 2.4.0:] Ahh.. The challenge is out!

You and me. Mano a mano.

I personally think 2.4.x is going to be as fast or faster at just about anything. We do have some MM issues still to hash out, and tuning to do, but I'm absolutely convinced that 2.4.x is going to be a _lot_ easier to tune than 2.2.x ever was.
