There is some really good information there. It makes me curious, how 
much of these tricks/patches are Ubuntu using? The merging of the 
configuration files seems imperative... a 9 second reduction is huge, 
and I wouldn't think anyone will be logging into a Gnome 2.6 environment 
from Ubuntu Breezy. But I guess I don't really know what I'm talking about.
