    Thanks Brian and andyprough for responses.

    I actually was not focused upon “speed” differences, but those are interesting comments.

    The overall takeaway I get is that most kernels will work for the basics and (presumably) the reasons for seeking/avoiding a specific kernel are:
    (1) security fixes
    (2) hardware not working
    (3) software not working (my issue with the Debian 5.15 and 5.16 kernels on an antiX system).
    (4) desire for specific feature (real-time kernels?)
