There is no reference as you stated. It just allows you to compare your computer to a dedicated slimmed down OS.

Does Linux distribution matter? Which one are you guys using? Debian/Mint/etc?
You can slim youself with ease; install server 2012 with no extraneous functions other than to play music. A 20G install space is far more than adequate. They say 16G to install. After slimming, it's less than 10G.

This still does not amount to what the optimizer does. The optimized server in core mode is very different.
I know, but things with me are slow.

We all are... :)
Hardware 'optimisation' is as important as software 'optimisation' The 2 don't always meet.
I do both simultaneously but reject miracle components in favour of getting basics right.

I have not had too many issues. The Optimizer even has settings for use of the Mytek driver which I believe some have had problems with other OSs.
I am using an Intel server board with everything turned off, and a PPA Studio USB card. Other system is an Atom with the same USB. Even the keyboard is turned off. The Atom uses MSata, so not even a cable. Depending how serious you want to get, PPA has a MB clock upgrade. I have not tried it, but it has gotten positive feedback on the forums.
