These changes center around architecture-specific optimizations, and pruning out some stuff that doesn't apply in that context. For example, Intel-specific options don't make sense for an AMD Athlon kernel and vise-versa. The timing settings were also changed from the default 250Hz to 1000Hz, and the schedulers set to be aggressively desktop-friendly.

Use this if you have a Pentium M, Centrino, or Celeron-M that's based on a pre-P4 architecture. * core2 -- Newer Intel multi-core CPUs, including quad-cores, i7's, and recent Xeons. * k7 -- Any 32-bit AMD Athlon, Duron, or Sempron CPUs. * k8 -- AMD64, 64FX, 64-bit-capable Sempron, Turion or Opteron CPUs. * p3 -- … Tue, 26 Apr 2011 14:01:59 +0000 http://kernel.hardwareforums.com/start?rev=1303826519&do=diff Hardwareforums.com is now hosting architecturally-optimized Linux kernels! Currently I'm packaging custom kernels for Debian “Lenny”, which should also work with many Debian-derivative distributions of Linux. These kernels are based off of the latest stable source from kernel.org, and will be updated as frequently as my schedule allows. There are some definate advantages to running a custom Linux kernel, but also some disadvantages which should be taken into account. Tue, 26 Apr 2011 14:01:59 +0000
