There are many reasons why GNOME performance might be slow.  Stupid
application design going to helped by some magic kernel patch.  Keep
in mind the GNOME doesn't run with real-time priority levels; neither
does the X server.  

The -rt patch isn't magic; no RTOS is magic.  A large amount of
application design and reworking in order to properly utilize the
POSIX real-time interfaces.
