I've already collected some points for reference: - Bind performance: http://people.freebsd.org/~dougb/bind-resperf.png - Jeff Roberson blog and scheduler improvements - Kris Kennaway Scalability Update: http://people.freebsd.org/~kris/scaling/Scalability%20Update.pdf - Kris Kennaway MySQL vs Postgres on FreeBSD: http://obsecurity.dyndns.org/sysbench-write.png (offline) - http://blog.insidesystems.net/articles/2007/04/11/postgresql-scaling-on-6= -2-and-7-0 I was hoping to get more information and/or benchmarks FreeBDS CURRENT vs FreeBSD 6, FreeBSD vs Linux,etc that I could use to make a showoff of FreeBSD :) I'm cc'ing Kris to see if he can get his machine online and ask for permission to use parts of his documentation.
