I have just set up a Tyan Tomcat III with dual p5-150's overclocked to 200mhz, with 128MB of memory. I am currently using Solaris 2.5.1 on it, and it feels pretty quick. I will experiment with the FreeBSD-SMP at some point in the future. I don't think it is quite up to production quality, from what I hear on this list. I would like to see some *real* kernel level threads in smp. We may get there in the next few months. I wish I could afford dual p6-200's! :) -- Craig Shaver (craig@progroup.com) (415)390-0654 Productivity Group POB 60458 Sunnyvale, CA 94088
