The kernel is the big one. There's probably also some stuff going on with 
glibc.

Before I upgraded, I put the 2.6.3 kernel onto an FC1 box. The difference in 
boot time, from grub menu to login prompt was 30 seconds: 75 seconds for 
2.4.22 (nptl), vs 45 seconds for 2.6.3.

All hail the gang of new schedulers.
