So I'm wondering if anybody out there has Oracle for SCO running on a FreeBSD server and would love to see how FreeBSD compares!! I got Oracle 6 running on FreeBSD some time ago, but I don't have Oracle 7 (only for NT - blech). So if anybody in FreeBSD land is running Oracle PLEASE run a few benchmarks and see how we stand. I'm going to start really looking into these damn benchmarks, cause I'm sure FreeBSD would blow Solaris out of the water in just about any benchmark imaginable.. I guess I'm ready to assume the role of promoter - but I need some hard stats.
