Is Mac OS X too slow....?

I found this a rather interesting discussion over on Slashdot, obvuiously people going to be pitting OS X on Apple PowerPC hardware to Windows XP on Intel/AMD hardware.

    Every time there's a mention of Mac OS X on Slashdot, there's a flurry of responses about how unbearably slow Mac OS X is.

    To anyone who has done software development under both Mac OS X and Windows or Linux, is there any truth to this or is it simply a knee-jerk reaction from non-Mac users who see low numbers like 800MHz.

    I'm talking about average priced Macs here, like the LCD iMac line, not the dual 1.25GHz machines that sell for $4500+.

What's your view on this discussion... Which is quicker... OS X or Windows XP ?
