slackware kernel vs system V
I have a AMD sempron 3000 System. My plan was to install suse linux but as i bought a magazine, got dvd of slackware linux 11. I notices that the kernal version of slackware linux is much less than that of other linux distributions like redhat and suse. Moreover, I learned that slackware linux is following BSD style and others follows system V style. I had installed Suse linux 10.2 in my office.
Is is true that slackware is more efficient and faster than Suse?
Which one is better for database server like mysql?
Is there any difficulties in exchanging programs and data between these two distributions?
I have downloaded slackware linux for AMD machine. Can I expect any performance benefit by installing the same on my machine over Suse linux?
Is the lower kernal version number in slackware indicates it is behind Suse or redhat?
