They DID test the faster servers like zeus (read it again .. :) and it stopped right where apache did (almost :), it was a kernel problem... It would have been fun to see how FreeBSD performed in this test, i'm not sure it would outperform NT, but I think that it would perform better than linux .. to some extend ... just my 5 cents /Søren To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
