For what it's worth - my m68k systems runs current linux kernel, 2.6.30, compiled with gcc 4.2.4 just fine, and I have not see any slow-down, apart from obvious things in bootup, like initiating udev, creating nodes and similar things that have nothing to do with kernel itself. I also make sure to compile my kernels with only the modules that makes sense for the hardware I run it on. My systems are one A1200 with Blizzard 1230III (030+882@50MHz) and 32MB RAM, one A1200 with Blizzard 1260 (060@50MHz) and 64MB RAM, and one Mac Quadra 910 (040@25MHz) with 64MB RAM. Oh and my build box, Aranym with a 040@100-180MHz depending on host at bootup, and for the time being, 256MB RAM (allthough, it is down ATM, fixing filesystem disaster after I somehow managed to launch aranym twice on same disk image :P) The A1200 with Blizz1230III has been running more or less non-stop since 1997 with only a break now and then when moving between locations, being installed into new tower solutions, and infrequent kernel updates, I dont use debian though, I use gentoo since it gives me a tool (portage) to build packages the way I want them, stripped where needed, bloated for the things I care about. Almost everything is buildt -Os. So, in the end, I'm not so sure that what you complain about is for real. -- kolla
