Subject: Open Discussion, kernel in production environment
Date: Mon, 1 May 2006 23:57:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200605012357.48623.marcin.hlybin@swmind.com> (raw)

Hello,

I always configure and compile a kernel throwing out all unusable options and 
I never use modules in production environment (especially for the router). 
But my superior has got the other opinion - he claims that distribution 
kernel is quite good and in these days optimization has no sense because of 
powerful hadrware. 
What do you think? I have few arguments for this discussion but I wonder what 
you say. Please, try to substantiate your opinions.

And the second question: which kernel branch/version *and why* do you use in 
production environment?

Regards
