Feel free to download the Linux optimization tutorial from here [a small 150 kb .pdf file].
This is version 02, February 2002 so constructive comments are welcome to benefit all Linux users. Have fun ... 
Currently I use Gentoo Linux on my workstation.
The ease of optimisation and extra speed is really something to be appreciated.
Highly recommended for intermediate to advanced Linux users!
i686 optimized binaries should run on:
-
Athlon (MP,XP)
-
Duron
-
Pentium IV
-
P III
-
P II
-
Pentium
-
Celeron
cpu based PC, so any i686, RPM based Linux workstation.
