It's not faster. Yet. I think they need to redo gcc for Cell. They can't
quite squeeze all the power out of the workhorse, _yet_. Speed evolves (is
improved), not only ease of use (Terrasoft have begun taking orders for
PS3's with Linux reinstalled). That's what I could gather from stuff I had
read anyway...
