the slower default kernel for months. There are too much unneeded
things
and too many server features compiled in, which are more for a server
and not for my notebook/PC. Which really not needs Debugging, SELinux,
RAID, 20 security features,....
The debugging should be taken out of the release kernels, yes. But RAID
support is modularized, and I'd imagine that the SELinux overhead is
incredibly small when it's turned off. The same goes for exec-shield. I
don't really know what the other 19 security features are
though :-)
And thats the point. One kernel for the desktop and one for all server
users, which you select at the installation or later. Is that too much?
And we never get these "slow Fedora kernel questions" again... ;)
That means six extra kernels to support, build, debug, and handle
external modules for: {i586,i686,ppc} X {UP,SMP}.
Take a look at this page:

Some dude builds FC kernels (only 2 and 3 right now) with various
desktop tweaks.
