Hi,

I am preparing a report for a study of the differences between the
FreeBSD and Linux  TCP/IP stacks, with respect to which implementation
is more efficient and robust.

I was wondering if someone may be able to provide me with some 
information on any major differences between the two stacks which
may make one stack seem 'better' than the other at handling
large loads of users.

Please send replies to  maher@istar.ca  since I doubt the spam
is needed on the mailing list.

Any help is greatly appreciated!  
Thanks in advance!

Robert Maher
