I might be out of date, but as far as I know MySQL performance on FreeBSD is still quite far behind Linux. So if you want to get the absolute best performance then you might want to run Linux. Search the mailing lists for MySQL performance and you should find lots of discussion and benchmarks on the topic. HTH, Dominic > Any insight into this matter would be most useful.
