Linux 3.0 Will Be Faster Than 2.6.39 179

Posted by timothy on Friday June 24, 2011 @06:51PM from the phrase-in-person-hours-saved dept.

sfcrazy writes "While we were thinking that the announcement of 3.x branch was nothing more than Linus' mood swing, it seems there is more to it. Linus wrote on the Linux Kernel Mailing List, '3.0 will still be noticeably faster than 2.6.39 due to the other changes made (ie the read-ahead), so yes, the regression itself is fixed.'"

What with the shorter version number, the kernel should now load faster, use less memory, and execute more quickly.

RSS is a news aggregator. /. is a news aggravator.
