Meego is a netbook operating system drawing from Intel's Moblin and Nokia's Maemo. Meego's performance were tested by Phoronix against other linux distros such as Ubuntu Netbook Remix, Fedora and Chromium OS. It's performance in the Phoronix test suite outshines the others.
It has the fastest boot time at under 10 seconds. Meego is the only one clocking below 10 seconds. It's using the btrfs file system. Canonical also wants to switch Ubuntu to btrfs by 2011, maybe even sooner when it comes out with version 10.10. This should be interesting. Will Fedora 14 follow suit?
The only speck in Meego's test is the OpenGL performance. This means anyone playing accelerated games in Meego will pay the price in speed.
Meego is being developed for devices with small screens. Meego and the other linux distros mentioned here should find their way into your netbooks, tablets, smartphones and even your everyday laptops.
