so the only explanation is some spacetime deformation you have running one
of those OS'es.

i see exactly the opposite and that's why i moved to NetBSD everywhere.


oh - the exception is disk speed with old 40MB drives i use for routers.
with linux i have to give hda=slow in lilo and got 400-500kB/s from HDD.

With NetBSD it's max 200, down to 50 (slowest machine=faster disk).

that's timing problems but i failed to fix it trying to port behavior of
hda=slow from linux.

anyway it doesn't change routing speed at all except booting.
