it makes a pretty noticable difference on my machine (in addition to it
being unstable in the past (i think it is better now though)). also, it
sucks for laptops running on battery, since it keeps the cpu from
sleeping much. the crusoe's would help here :)
so, i would advocate with it being off by default.
tim, what are your views on this?
