Important ( determiner ) parameters are ( FreeBSD ( 9.0 , 9.1 , 10.0 : any
of them with X + Desktop ( FluxBox , KDE , Gnome , I never used any other
one , except one time I have tried Enlightenment , but not for this case  )
, Memory Chip Sizes ) .

Assume :

Computer A : Memory Chip Sizes : ( 2 GB , 1 GB , 2 GB , 1 GB ) : Working
SLOW . FreeBSD A
Computer B  : Memory Chip Sizes : ( 2 GB , 2 GB , 2 GB , 2 GB ) : Working
FAST . FreeBSD B

Interchange memory chips :

Computer A : Memory Chip Sizes : ( 2 GB , 2 GB , 2 GB , 2 GB ) : Working
FAST . FreeBSD A
Computer B  : Memory Chip Sizes : ( 2 GB , 1 GB , 2 GB , 1 GB ) : Working
SLOW . FreeBSD B


Then : Interchanging only memory chips is interchanging also the SPEED .
Means : FreeBSD installation is NOT important ( or effective ) .

Thank you very much .
