  Page colouring isn't all that useful.

  The AUTO_EOI_* options can squeeze a bit more performance out of system.
If your motherboard doesn't support EOI, your system will rapidly (< 5

  Stripping unnecessary drivers can help if you are short on RAM, but this
can only save a few hundred K at most.
