I can confirm the following: A) You are a troll. B) The above "confirmation" states nothing. You fail to state the conditions of the test. You do not qualify your statements with facts. C) Want me to show you where FreeBSD wins? Let's try 4700 simultaneous users, constant 500KB/s network output with 800KB/s bursts, I/O on vinum with stable 80MB/s. Linux 2.4 or 2.2.x never stood up to even just half that load. D) Your posts are very good flame baits because I am writing this email. Has it ever occurred to you that your opinions might be stupid and ignorant?
