Looks like a consistent ~40% bloat to me ;)
Configs (grep = .config) up on <http://bugsplatter.mine.nu/test/>, very
similar configs as I dual boot 2.4 / 2.6 for testing. NICs and vfst/ntfs
as modules on boxen dual-boot 'doze/linux.
2.6 boots but no longer works properly on box deltree since last couple
releases, I have no desire to take the firewall box down to discover why
2.6 no longer does networking like it used to. 2.6 leaving old hardware
behind, who cares? Is why I stay with 2.4 on older hardware.
[1] fails to boot, locks up just after lilo, too early in boot to gain
any clues at all :( IBM 365X early model, usually runs win98, an orphan?
