How does rawhide seem to be running in the last week/days or so? When I messed with it few days ago, it seems slow and not as responsive (yes I am aware at some point, debug type services are turned on and make it a little slower during testing). It seemed firefox was not showing pages correctly, as in some of the blocks/frames within the page would be a bunch of them, like tiled or something? Thought I saw few others mention this before.
In other words, it running same, better, no idea what I am referring to, it picking up steam and working pretty decent for being rawhide?

X doesn't work for me (ATI rv280).
There was a kernel bug (479553) a couple of days ago that was generating a lot of log messages that might have slowed a system down. If you were using kernel-2.6.29-0.24.rc0.git13.fc11 that might have been your problem.
I used rawhide to test livecd-creator last night and it didn't seem any slower than F10.

There was some serious oopsing in recent kernels which caused some slowness and rather large /var/log/messages. Today's kernel is much better.
I had the same X problem. The intel driver has been flaky for lots of folks since November-ish. If your intel card is misbehaving, I had success with the latest drivers by
a)Turn off compiz b) In your xorg.conf, add Option "EXANoComposite" "true"
My network seems quite slow. I think the problem is that dns queries are seeing A rather than AAAA (or vice versa) responses and there appears to be a timeout associated with that. The slowdown comes and goes with updates to bind.
For the most part, today's rawhide is usable for me.
