I don;t have any hard facts to prove or disprove the subject line, but after I installed FreeBSD v2.1.6 (I know it's old - I'm still waiting for v2.2.2) it felt slower than OpenLinux Lite v1.1. FELT is the word here people, but over all OpenLinux felt faster and more responsive to any commands I gave it. I have a basic setup as follows i486DX2 - 66 ISA bus 32MB of RAM Promise VL EIDE Card Trident TGUI9440 based VL Video Card Adaptec 1522 SCSI Card FreeBSD is setup as fellows IDE Drive 2 (120MB in total) 50MB - / part 1 70MB - swap part 2 SCSI Drive 1 (500MB in total) 150MB /var filesystem 350MB /usr filesystem SCSI Drive 2 128MB Optical to used as a backup device Paul Griffith - paulg@interlog.com
