Well, the reason they went to 3.0 is because of the binary-incompatability 
changes.  The whole point of 3 what to switch to qt3 and cleanup any cruft 
left-over from their first attempts at the dcop/kpart solution.  So, there 
wasn't supposed to be *major* changes, just ones that can't be made between, 
say, 2.1.1 and 2.2.

As for the speed difference, are you using self-compiled bins, or pre-release 
.debs?  I ask, because (supposedly) compiling things yourself causes a 
speedup, and that's what I did :-)
