Surely the Linux-kernel must by now be the worlds most advanced and most bloated kernel? Then again, the kernel is not the thousands of high quality modules (which I guess could be called drivers) which allow you access to the hardware.

Anybody know how the central kernel (the parts that are on all hardware) has evolved speed/size-wise?

Also, is the drivers in linux of higher quality than the ones for example windows? I have gotten the impression that it is so.
