2.6.38 speed improvements

Well, all my programs start faster. And no, they aren't cached in memory at that point...but when you start them for the very first time or after you drop caches.
So it could be because of the THP (according to J. Corbet: link) or some changes in VFS. Also my DE loads quicker too.

Is it just me or...?
