Well, you don't have to be a hacker to compile KDE. It's almost as easy as 
installing a package via RPM. The KDE developers are working hard to improve 
performance (wait for KDE 3.0!) and BTW, the performance of KDE has also 
something to do with gcc. As long as the gcc guys don't fix the C++ speed 
problems, you (or your distributor) have to do some prelinking in order to 
get faster startup times.

AFAIK SuSE offers objprelinked packages.
