The biggest goof they made is to run the system in the default
installation. I'm sure if they would have enabled softupdates, FreeBSD
would have been right up there with Linux. If they had created a custom
kernel, it would have been even faster.
The default sync mode for disk access is very reliable, but painfully slow.

Hi,
Based on numerous other articles that I
have read. This one proves to be giving very
incorrect results IMHO.
