When I switched to 6.0, then 6.1, it was noticed by most of my clients that my php/mysql/apache system slowed down a fair bit compared to previous version (5.XX). I always like to be on the bleeding edge of FreeBSD, but the performance hit is being commented about by my (few) mysql/php clients. I've seen the "trolls" of past about speed and previous versions, and I would really be interested to hear the actual truth about 6.XX speed. It is my understanding that 6.XX is more optimized for multi-processors, and that for a single processor, 5.XX (or even 4.XX) outperforms 6.XX. Would someone please outline the choices/drawbacks/concerns of even considering going back a series? Thanks, Jim
