Real world speed tests for Panther?

Everyone keeps saying that Panther is much faster than Jaguar. So let's get some real world proof. I'm looking to run 2-4 tests on my top-o-the-line Powerbook - first on Jaguar (today) and then on Panther after I upgrade (tomorrow). Hook me up with your suggestions!

I am interested in your results. Theoretically, I will be upgrading tonight, we'll see. Maybe I can give you the heads up.

Startup time from power off until the the finder is usable. Application startup time, for say, Eclipse M4. :) You might wonder why I am making suggestions instead of measuring speed myself. I am going to out of town so I won't be installing Pather until next week.

You and I have the same laptop. I upgraded last night...things seem to be running a little faster, but I didn't stop to write down typical build times, etc. before I updgraded so I could be wrong. It's certainly not slower. I didn't have high expectations on the improved performance front...but things are looking up on the productivity side. Because I have a bad habit of having a dozen apps open at once, Expose is going to save me one hell of a lot of time. I'm usually slow to adapt to new usability features, but I am all over this one. Happy upgrading!

As far as performance goes, there is a small difference. Using my old 12" powerbook, loading IDEA (including a considerable IDEA project) has gone from 37 seconds to around 31 seconds. I didn't actually expect an increase in application performance, so the marginal speed increase is a nice bonus. FWIW - performing the same test on a P4-2.6 winxp box takes 18 seconds. In terms of using the operating system, most actions feel slightly quicker, such as navigating around finder and using the dock when the system is under high load.

Most of the sites reporting the speed increases in Panther have used Xbench: http://www.xbench.com/
