I'm clear that this test is not fair as there is no same free

Interesting experiment would be to have a gentoo system running
under Fedora
inside a chroot with just the apps to be benchmarked (so libc,
XFree86 and the app). That would balance the initial conditions at least,
oprofile should explain the reasons for any differences.
That said, I was really surprised how fast OO 1.1 from rawhide
started up (even before it got prelinked) :-)
