But at the momenta I will use it for enterprise solutions and in this case we make alone the hole instalation. The main question for me is: Exists any stable and fast freebsd solution for java. We are using on sever side jboss + postgreSQL. As I know postgreSQL is best performing on freebsd (I hope and we make tests for it) and I need to look for java performance. General we have PC dual processor system with 4/8/12 GB RAM and have 200-500 concurent users. The solution that we are using at the moment is own compilation based on linux RedHat AS 3.0 (from sources). Also on linux we tested IBM java and found problems with memory management and performance. regards, ivan. > Cheers, > > Matthew > > -- > Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks > Savill Way > PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow > Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Part 1.2 Type: application/pgp-signature
