[OLUG] XFree86

[Drazak]

Technically, you should get a speed up compiling XFree for yourself since
you would use pentium opts whereas their dist uses standard 386
ops.  Also, if you have multiple processors, you can apply the SMP patch
for threading support.  However, I dont believe the gains would be worth
it personally.
