Hummm. Fair enough, then maybe Red Hat 5.2 would be a good comparision. ( I think it's 5.2 that's got the Linux 2.2 kernel, to be honest my actuall "work" only involves FreeBSD, so any Linux stuff is pretty much outside of my normal day, although interesting none the less ) > > If I run a webserver farm or something like this and buy > supprot from SUSE, then I'd get this system as it is ... > but not a hacker system with a hacker kernel ... > > So I wanted to compare FreeBSD-STABLE with Linux-STABLE... I was under the impression that the general Linux community felt that the 2.2 kernel was the new stable. I always thought it was neat how the new Linux 2.2 kernel and the new FreeBSD 3 came out around the same time, and both seemed to make big jumps in their use of things like smp. > > -- > Andreas Klemm http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/~andreas > News : FreeBSD 3.1 SMP outperforms SuSE Linux 6.0 SMP by 230% !!! > See : http://www.freebsd.org/~andreas/benches/index.html > http://www.FreeBSD.ORG/~fsmp/SMP/akgraph-a/graph1.html > Joseph Scott joseph@randomnetworks.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
