Well, nova's got 16MB, but it's pretty busy a lot of the
time. :-)  I haven't had any speed problems with 3.0.  I did
reload the software from scratch, though.

Our lab machines were upgraded (though they were all
reformatted about a year ago), and they too have 16MB (but
mostly >'030s<), and they're running pretty well too. 
NetInfo junk is about a zillion times faster, so if you
have a huge group or passwd file, things are a lot better
under 3.0.  NI lookups were sometimes intolerably slow
before, and I haven't had a complaint yet under the new
system.

I was running a 3.0 client and a 2.1 client (of a 3.0 server)
head to head, and the 3.0 client blew it away for anything
that had to do with NetInfo (which is most everything).  I
didn't notice any differences for simple apps.  

Overall, I don't know what speed problems people are
having, but I'm not having them here, and I haven't heard
complaints from lab users yet.  (But I'm sure we all will if
they're reading this. :-) )
