I want to buy a new CPU and a new motherboard, but I really don't know what to buy. Thus I'm poking here to gather some advice. My needs are: - this will be funded by me only, so it mustn't be too expensive (I can't afford a Xeon processor for example), but of course I would like it to perform well! I'm thinking of $600. - this will be a router between two Gigabit network: I also need an advice for a performent GigE adapter; - this will also be my Internet router, so a third Ethernet interface will be needed (onboard would suffice I think); - this will be a NFS server: I need at least two UDMA133 connectors and two S-ATA II connectors onboard; - I own a PCI Promise PDC20319 with 4 SATA150 connectors currently that I'm willing to reuse, so the motherboard must have at least an old PCI slot as well; - FreeBSD MUST be correctly supported :-). Actually I don't even know if I should buy an Athlon 64 or Intel Core. If you have good articles that thoroughly explains all I need to know, please point it out! Thank you in advance for your help.

I believe it wouldn't be progress to make the 4x core machine to run an operating system that, i believe, can't efficiently utilize the hardware ( ( heavy metals + electricity ) / utilization ). -- Sten Daniel Soersdal From owner-freebsd-chat@FreeBSD.ORG Thu Aug 2 16:36:56 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-chat@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id E3EF616A41F for ; Thu, 2 Aug 2007 16:36:56 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from delphij@delphij.net) Received: from tarsier.geekcn.org (tarsier.geekcn.org [210.51.165.229]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A025F13C481 for ; Thu, 2 Aug 2007 16:36:56 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from delphij@delphij.net) Received: from localhost (tarsier.geekcn.org [210.51.165.229]) by tarsier.geekcn.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C6349EB41E7; Fri, 3 Aug 2007 00:36:55 +0800 (CST) X-Virus-Scanned: amavisd-new at geekcn.org Received: from tarsier.geekcn.org ([210.51.165.229]) by localhost (mail.geekcn.org [210.51.165.229]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id ag4oCRpbWRIP; Fri, 3 Aug 2007 00:36:51 +0800 (CST) Received: from charlie.delphij.net (unknown [221.221.170.75]) (using TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 bits)) (No client certificate requested) by tarsier.geekcn.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 08A82EB4020; Fri, 3 Aug 2007 00:36:51 +0800 (CST) DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; s=default; d=delphij.net; c=nofws; q=dns; h=message-id:date:from:user-agent:mime-version:to:cc:subject: references:in-reply-to:content-type:content-transfer-encoding; b=n+Hhz5WTJKXiE5JmkM6NXjyi9HctDrRczPu0M/KJXv+6TE5yOwmKn1eY6+t2+pZiW blJVeOR97IbJ7K/sS5jyA== Message-ID: <46B20822.2010005@delphij.net> Date: Fri, 03 Aug 2007 00:36:50 +0800 From: Xin LI User-Agent: Thunderbird 2.0.0.5 (X11/20070721) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Sten Daniel Soersdal References: <46AF827C.2040409@gmail.com> <46B0E865.6060800@vindaloo.com> <46B1FEF0.5050501@gmail.com> In-Reply-To: <46B1FEF0.5050501@gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: Christopher Hilton , freebsd-chat@freebsd.org Subject: Re: TMPFS, is it available on FreeBSD 6 or 7?

You get all memory back then. Best regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, secnetix GmbH & Co. KG, Marktplatz 29, 85567 Grafing b. M.

You get all memory > back then. There is also a patch from pjd that will reclaim memory from md upon file deletion. It should apply to 6.x possibly with some changes. If you are unable to use 7.0 for some reason then I can send this to you to work on.
