(486/pentium, cpu speed) What elements are of most importance performancewise? (nic,cpu,disk etc) I'm presently running redhat6.0 with ipmasq but find performance degrading with uptime. This machine is however host to a pretty massive ftpserver aswell. I hope moving to freebsd as a dedicated router will solve this.
