How are we defining "negligible"? I know I've seen a pruned
kernel 25% smaller than GENERIC for the same release; I /think/ I've
seen one 33% smaller. Is that difference important? DammifIkno.
IF you're feeling paranoid, compile and install both.
(Assuming I'm correct in believing they install clean to separate
directories.)
