One of those 2.96 compilers snuck in (my poor use of autocomplete). I take back
all the previous data and submit accurate ones, and apologise profusely for
ruining the signal to noise ratio on this list

To rehash what the last results were _supposed_ to be and what these are. I have
identical config 2.5.38 kernels compiled with either gcc2.95.3 or gcc3.2. Then I
run these two kernels through a contest benchmark (http://contest.kolivas.net)
using ONLY gcc2.95.3 to run the benchmark.

Kernel Time CPU
NoLoad:
2.5.38 68.25 99%
2.5.38-gcc32 67.28 99%
Process Load:
2.5.38 71.60 95%
2.5.38-gcc32 70.86 94%
IO Half Load:
2.5.38 81.26 90%
2.5.38-gcc32 88.11 82%
IO Full Load:
2.5.38 170.21 42%
2.5.38-gcc32 230.77 30%
Mem Load:
2.5.38 104.22 70%
2.5.38-gcc32 104.97 70%

This time only the IO loads showed a statistically significant difference.

Terribly sorry about that previous mess
