Morning all ...

	I have this box sitting around idle right now ... 1Gig of RAM,
several 9 gig scsi hard drives ... no OS.

	I'm going to install FreeBSD 4.x on it this afternoon and want to
run a load of tests on it and save the results ... benchmark the disk I/O,
memory, SMP capabilities, network I/O, etc ... basically, I want to
compare the two OSs on the exact same hardware, and see how they compare
... 

	but I need suggestions on what software I should be running for
doing the benchmarking ... it has to be apples to apples
... iozone-freebsd vs iozone-solaris, etc ... 

	Since there doesn't appear to be one already, I'll compile my
results and put them up on a web page for everyone to see and comment upon
... 

	suggestions? thanks ...
