Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi If I want to set-up a proxy server, what's the best RELEASE for me? Is 3.0 faster or better for those purposes? And which version would you suggest to use for a multi-user server? I once heared people say for servers that have to be fast you'd try 3.0 instead of 2.2.X... Is that true? Or can I better use 2.2.X because it has proven its stability? BTW: Since it's running under ELF, does it eat up more mem? Under Linux my shell (bash) always took more than 1.3Mb, and under FreeBSD it was just half of that (700K or smth), is that still the same? (I always assumed that as the big disadvantage for ELF instead of a.out...)
