Idiot. I have a SSD in my Mac. Does it help? Certainly. Is it faster than 
with a HD? Naturally.

Is it anywhere the same speed as a linux box with a HD? Not nearly so. The 
linux box with a HD is *faster* on file access than the Mac with a SSD. 
Granted, this is a fast HD, not a crappy one like apple plugs into their box

And I run a linux box with the same model SSD, similar processor speed. The 
Mac gets *trounced* in file access times. The linux box is doing the compile 
of a *very* large project (more than 200.000 lines of source code) *3 times* 
as fast as the comparable Mac. The same is true when I boot linux on the Mac 
(I have it dualbooting). Linux runs circles around that shitty OSX
