Have you used, erm... Linux? Both Linux and FreeBSD run pretty much at
hardware level. You benchmark either, you'll get very close results in
speed and scalability. Both are well optimized.

Unix is for servers, Windoze/OSX is for clients. They're much better
clients than Unix. Cut and paste still doesn't work well in Unix GUIs.
Think about that.
