- what is the best Linux distribution to use pd with?
i'm using pd with suse which works fine, but i'm interested in switching to gentoo. it should get the best performance out of your system by compiling all programs optimized for your machine!
which seems to be more a rumour than proven fact. see

they used a celeron machine without any further optimizations beside "-march=pentium3 -pipe -O3" to compare the systems. they didn't use any sse/sse2/mmx optimizations...
i suppose (i can't prove it) you should get a bit more performance on these machine that they did for the test... they used the most stable settings...
