There can be myriad differences between cancer cells and normal cells or there can be very few differences. This is one of the reasons that cancer is so difficult to treat. In general cancer cells multiply faster than "normal" cells; therefore, they have an increased rate of DNA turnover and metabolism. Usually, both radiotherapy and chemotherapy rely on this phenomenon.
Radiation at sufficient levels and many forms of chemotherapy cause damage to DNA. Normal, slower replicating cells usually have time to repair this damage. Faster replicating cells pass this damaged DNA on to their progeny unrepaired and, hopefully, the cell will eventually die. So, broken down to its most base form both chemo and radiation are poisons and the medical staff tries to walk a fine line of killing the cancer cells before the poisons kill the normal cells.
In addition to the previous replies about kernel debugging slowing the system down, I believe you must have misread some portions of the article because the article actually states that DP3 ran better on the G4/350 with 64MB RAM than the G3/400 with 256MB RAM. As illustrated by this quote from the "Performance: Aqua in Motion" section of the article:
"The G4/350 handled all the transformations effects (sheets, genie, etc.) noticeably better than the G3/400, even with only 64MB of RAM (which is the minimum RAM requirement for Mac OS X)."
"However, Terra Soft's core focus continues to be the G3, Staats said, and its primary goal is working with Apple. Mac users will be able to buy the company's Yellow Dog Linux package pre-installed on G3 hardware from Apple-authorized VARs by early October, Staats said."
Actually, DisplayPostScript (DPS) is on the way outat apple. MacOS X server uses it, but MacOS X Client will not nor will any future versions of client or server. The new imaging model is based on PDF using technology initially developed by Jobs other company Pixar, a company which knows a tad about graphics. DPS was shelved, at least in part, because of Adobes excessive liscensing fees. I have even heard rumors of a minimal gui being released by apple for Darwin, but those were only rumors and mixing in the DGS system from Gnustep nay be the best bet.
Sorry, but Apple has just jumped back into the fire. Checkout the two urls below. The ASPL was updated to 1.1 today and a Darwin streaming sever was released under it.
Mac OS X and Mac OS X server are not the same. Mac OS X server is basically just Rhapsody renamed. Mac OS X is a more consumer oriented release that will allow most legacy MacOS apps to run, after minor tweaking, with protected memory and preemptive multitasking alongside yellowbox apps. Mac OS X server will soon be released, while the release date for "Mac OS X is not slated for widespread release until at least the third quarter of 1999".

What kind do you want, M.D. or Ph.D? Well no matter, I wasted enough time getting both.

This might happensooner than you think.
