No, sorry, I didn't mean to imply that. At least with GEGL disabled,
There's no performance difference I know of between 2.6 and 2.7.

In truth I haven't run 2.6 very much on my slow low-memory PIII laptop,
and 2.7 not at all yet. 2.6 has mostly seemed comparable in speed to
2.4 -- both a bit slower, on that machine, than 2.2 was, a difference
I don't notice on faster desktop machines.
