Yes, but for a regular machine I could not tell a difference.
I would not run a server like that, but for my personal machine which I use
to access server machines, I think it is just fine.

Kelly,

In creating a custom kernel, did you loose out on the customizations that
are in the centos kernel by default?

Steven, I just compile a custom kernel from scratch, and then lock the
kernel rpm so it can't be updated.
You can't patch the centos kernel as there are a lot of mods to it, but they
have not impacted my operation any.

Does anyone have any experience using speak with centos?
If not, what is involved in adding speakup into the centos kernel?
I know that centos is the open source version of RedHat enterprise Linux, so
I thought there may be someone who has done this on the list.
I am interested in going to centos because I am finding it hard, with time
constraints, to keep up with the latest version(s) of fedora.

Thoughts and opinions welcome.
