Why is Lunix so fucking slow when launching applications? Launching Mozilla, Opera, and other multiplatform applications takes 2-3 times as long as it does on Windows 2000 in the same computer.

Well linux is fast for me. FYI I use on my install (stage1):
CFLAGS="-march=i686 -O4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -fforce-addr -funroll-loops -ffast-math -frerun-loop-opt -msse -mmmx -m3dnow -frerun-cse-after-loop -falign-functions=4 -ftracer -fvisibility-inlines-hidden -fno-strict-aliasing -frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4 -maccumulate-outgoing-args -fprefetch-loop-arrays"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
For my USE flags I removed everything I only enable them before I emerge something. You have to emerge some apps indidivually but you can make a good lean system with only a less than 200 of them if you use Fluxbox (which is optimized for performance) and the terminal instead of all this GUI shit.
