My intent was to inform and hear from people that had similar issues and to learn what they might have done to work around them. Not to cause a debate on business practices, criticize Red Hat or inflame the Centos community.

I appreciate your clarification. I think what got folks up in arms was an impression from your original email (from, e.g., the all caps bits and implications of them having gotten too big) that you were indeed criticizing RH.

And I'd still be interested (as in, genuinely curious, not skeptical) to hear what sorts of applications benefit from optimized kernels (HPC? I/O intense?) and what kind of performance increases one can get.
