I saw a few benchmarks showing Gentoo was actually slower than Redhat and Mandrake - then I really wasn't sure why I was compiling for days. :) Yes, I know you don't have to compile everything. Yes, I realize those benchmarks weren't the most scientific. We use Redhat in production. When it came to decision time, the only real contenders were Redhat and Suse, because we wanted someone else to QA our operating system (not our business focus - that would cost us more than the OS) and we needed the best hardware vendor support. We picked Redhat over Suse primarily because everyone in our organization had Redhat experience (and on their desktops) but no Suse experience - otherwise I probably would've gone with Suse. I'm really tired of poor file system diversity on Redhat.
