Even thou I never looked for a list of what's enabled in rawhide, I'd be 
surprised if other distros do not have something similar. They may be in 
different development stage, right (e.g. already beta).

some test suite, but about comparing and tuning. I may try to arange one 
old PC with "out of the box" rawnhide to run periodicaly e.g. the Phoronix 
test suite and publish the results - this will provide comparison. Let's 
see, if it'll be useful.
