SCSI controller: Adaptec AHA274x/284x/294x Disc: QUANTUM, ATLAS 10K 9WLS, Rev: UCH0 CPU: Pentium III, 533 MHz RAM: 256 MB On RedHat Linux the compiler was: egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release). Once again let my clarify that I understand that these doesn't prove anything really useful, I'm just wondering why FreeBSD performs as it does..
