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

for a comparison of debian, gentoo and mandrake.
debian or redhat/planet ccrma has more audio packages than gentoo has. recompiling of rpm or deb packages is not very difficult, if you want to optimize the binary for you CPU.
