Most "tweaks" are useless or already enabled in modern linux distributions. |

That article is from 2009 and much has changed since then. Some of the tweaks mentioned were/are security downgrades or alternate package management techniques that are not recommended with aptosid. If kde has enough memory and a good video card I don't think there are many tweaks that would make it faster. Playing with the rendering engine and video drivers, and turning some effects within kde off may make things a wee bit quicker, but not my much. As always file access times are the bottleneck... so use ext4 and a fast hard drive or SSD. |

I would ignore this, old, outdated, 2 posters there pretty much tell all (they seem like seasoned users ) |

Thanks, buddies.I appreciate the hints.I have already realized there is no tweak at all.Perhaps It would be better the xfce or lxde with my sluggish outdate pentium 3 or waste some bucks to acquire a new pc.
cheers. |

My tweak has a name: slh's kernels. On an old laptop with an Nvidia card I switched to Debian stock kernels because I borked an upgrade. Being back on slh's kernels: they are so freakingly fast!
