Small sample set aside, the performance differences here are much bigger than I've seen in previous linux comparisons. Something has to be off right? Curious if anyone is able to reproduce these results.

Man, you got me SWEATING. "Did I miss an archannounce regarding VLC? Why tf would there be an arch-announce for VLC?!?!"

Due to the VLC updates taking up too many lines in our terminal, we have decided to drop VLC from the extra repository. Users who wish to play back videos can install them from the AUR.
