I don't get this..  There would be other concerns with linux on the whole
in regard to security issues as well as tcp/ip issues.  I mean I still have
a hard time grasping linux as a serious operating system when little things
like how "far" away localhost is keep coming to mind.  not to mention the
little to no real auditing of code.

Performance just isn't a big enough issue since there is not that much of
a gain or loss in one direction or another to be any cause for alarm.

Cheers..
