During the session it was stated by the speaker mentioned that running their system on FreeBSD (both 4.x and 5.x) not necessarily would be a good thing due to a lot of filesystem calls in their product, which PHP on FreeBSD had performance problems with under high load. In other words he did not recommend FreeBSD as server platform for eZ Publish (or any other PHP software for that matter) where a high number of visitors was probable. I found this to be difficult to believe, and decided to ask you about whether this might be the case or not.
