Has anyone used FreeBSD for *extensive* RealMedia serving, particularly
video?  I.e., have you done load tests to determine exactly how many
streams a FreeBSD server with a given CPU/mboard/memory/disk/network IO
configuration can handle.  I may have an application which will need 1000's
of simultaneous streams, and I'd like to host it on the platform I feel
gives the greatest serving power per dollar, which currently seems to be
FreeBSD.  Also looking for experience on using reflectors for live content...

	Brian
