Greetings!

	I have just now heard about this custom kernel directed to
performance and I was wondering - anyone here has any experience with
that?
	I'd rather just download their .config and compile the kernel
from a deb src package, any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.
Francisco

A quick glance at tests [1] makes me not bother with Liquorix yet.
As you can see, performance is a double edged sword, you gain a little
more responsiveness, but loose on throughput.
Of course it should be tested for your workload and probably also
perform a security audit check of all modifications in Liquorix.

	Thanks for the input. To be honest, I'm ok with that trade-off; my
intention is to boot Liquorix for gaming only. For regular workloads I'd stick
with the vanilla kernel.

	Also, I'm sorry for the noobish question, but it's been a really long
time since I've done any kind of kernel work. How do I perform a security check?

	Thanks again.

Cheers,
Francisco
