Geeky Update – Gentoo

I left the Shuttle machines running SETI while I was away to judge the performance of the Linux machine now that I have Gentoo running on it. The first signs are encouraging – it now is cranking units out faster than the Windows machine.

This is what you would expect since I unlocked the Athlon XP in the Linux machine using a wee kit from High Speed PC and I have it running at a higher clock speed. Prior to that, running Redhat it was still slower than the Windows machine despite the higher clock speed. Nice work Gentoo :)
