And I haven't seen any performance with beagle on or off. My 3 systems
with mupltiple fedora core 6, fedora 7 and rawhide work same with beagle
on or off. I also tested it on a really poor celeron and only 256mb
laptop with ubuntu running. I disabled beagle completely on this laptop
and it still it's performance was bad as it was before I disabled beagle
and some other stuff.

the moral of the story: If you have crappy hardware you will have crappy
performance and it doesn't matter if beagle is running or not. If you
have good hardware you will have nice performance no matter if beagle is
on or off.
