FC5 x86 and x64 are about the same speed. If one is slow, it is not set
up properly.
i know that x86_64 has only ~5-10 % more speed than i386.
it's not the big deal.
but if i switch from fc*6* x86_64 to fc*5* i386 it feels much more
speedy. alone the time from grub menu until init starts.
quit clear, the most comes from the new kernel/gnome.
(seems that at boot_delay=*-*1000 is working here...)
and of course the aged fc5, with my individual changes since the clean
install...
additionally, that most of my stuff works fine under fc*6* x86_64.
why should i stay with i386 ?
btw.
i'm unable to see progress indicators for some time.
' got enough the last weeks...
my tin cans and there internals:
amd64: fc5 i386, fc6 i386, fc6 x86_64
pIII: fc5 i386, fc6 i386
notebook: fc5 i386 , [isn't a partition free here for fc6 ?]
:-?
updating all means of lot of progress indicators to watch. i love it !
