I know that my eMail didn't contain any facts. My point of reference 
will be FreeBSD 5.4 (shouldn't make a big difference in regards to UFS2, 
right?) and probably a Gentoo Linux with ext3.
Again, my eMail was more about how to tune the performance of UFS2 with 
tons of small files than a comparison to other release of FreeBSD, or 
other BSD's (Open, Net) or Linux.

I do know that comparing different distributions will be quite hard. 
That's not the point, yet :)

cheers,
Marian
