I think the excellent results Kris got with FreeBSD were significantly 
helped by patching postgresql to remove setproctitle(). Other than that, 
  from the sysbench line I see this is OLTP benchmark which should mean 
a lot of write transactions, and I've consistently seen much better file 
system write performance on Linux than on FreeBSD. No tuning can help here.
