No, many users, me included, only run FreeBSD on UP systems. Do I have to switch to (Net|Open|DragonFly)BSD because FreeBSD is now only targeted to MP? I do not think so, and thats why this benchmark does compare apples with apples, but these are microbenchmarks, and more complex tasks may show completely different results. I am also missing results with Linux (and other BSD's), which may better show our (FreeBSD's) position.
