Howdy,  :)

	I'm trying to squeeze the maximum performance out of a system that 
was running well on a P5 133, but not running significantly better with a 
shiny new PPro 200.  Reading through the Handbook and "The Complete 
FreeBSD," I came across these two kernel options that look interesting.  
We are running a 2.1.5-Release system, and I am wondering if the 
"I686_CPU" option is available to me, and if it would help significantly.  
Also, we run an IRC server on this system that makes heavy use of File 
Descriptors.  Would installing support for the FDESC filesystem be of use 
to me?  I can't find any documentation on it in the Handbook/FAQ search, 
and nothing that helped me in the mail list search.

	Any other info on what to look for would be appreciated as well.

Thanks,

Doug
