Could someone please explain to me why a Linux 75 mhz machine kicks the
hell out of a FreeBSD with a Pentium II 266mhz 256M Ram and two ultra-wide
fast SCSI drives???
I love BSD but for performance reasons linux may be my choice.
Any performance tips would be helpful...
My linux machine puts out about 700 (locally)emails a minute while BSD
only puts
out about 200... my limits appear to configured properly. My kernel
options have been set.. Is there anything that I'm missing to get this
machine to work??? The only difference between the two is that the Linux
Box is working like a dog while the BSD box doesn't go above .05 load and
stays around 90 idle
What are the differences in memory managers between the two??
I've got a consultant here trying to get linux to do everything but with
the numbers I'm seeing it's hard to stay loyal.. Please help!!
