You won't see much improvements in performance for a machine that runs a light load only. This is typical for the home/hobby machines that many people have. Try pushing it with a high load, particularly on a multiprocessor, and you should definitely see a difference. Other improvements include: better support for more hardware: noticeable if you have that hw, more filesystems: useful if you happen to need that. Helge Hafting
