> It's the beta release. It's gonna be faster with GPU acceleration AFAIK. No it won't. A (the?) big problem with performance is that we're running desktop applications on a slow-ish mobile device. (all of it: slow CPU, slow GPU, slow RAM, slow flash etc.) To get a good experience you need to throw more (i.e. faster) hardware at it and re-architect and strip down key applications. Or write new ones from the ground up designed for mobile devices and the resource limitations that come with them. The 'beta' label is an attempt to set expectations re: the state of the distros right now. When they change the label to 'final' people are still going to be complaining about performance.
