:Greetings,
:
:Here is a surprisingly unbiased article comparing OSes running hard core
:network apps. The results are kind of disturbing, with FreeBSD (4.2)
:coming in last against Linux (RH), Win2k, and Solaris (Intel).
This is old. The guys running the tests blew it in so many ways
that you might as well have just rolled some dice. There's a slashdot
article on it too, and quite a few of the reader comments on these
bozos are correct. I especially like comment #41. Don't worry,
FreeBSD stacks up just fine in real environments.
