I am not sure how much difference in performance you will see from the
recompile for your processor....

And FYI, from the changelog for the most recent FC2
kernel-2.6.9-1.11_FC2:

* Fri Dec 31 2004 Dave Jones <davej@xxxxxxxxxx>
 
- Drop 4g/4g patch completely.

And from the announcement:

A large change over previous kernels has been made. The 4G:4G memory
split patch has been dropped, and Fedora kernels now revert back to
the upstream 3G:1G kernel/userspace split.
