Well its not really a question of speed. Many kernel updates fix security issues. Custom ones will have to rebuild everytime. For filesystems, FUSE has recently been merged in the upstream kernel and will be included in 2.6.14 version. So it might be possible to use a pure user space solution which wouldnt potentially break with every new kernel update
