There may also a speed increase up to the numbers of CPU's, because  
the new kernel is SMP enabled.
Additionally i think the new gcc also does his part.

1. Why?
2. Hard rt systems have nothing to do with execution speed, right?  
They _have to_ met their realtime constraints otherwise peoples live  
are at risk.

How could a RT System distribute the cpu cycles optimally?
Does a RT system really distribute cpu cycles?

time to guess ;)
