I've been lurking on the list for a few days now and haven't seen any discussion of this. The status page on the freebsd.org server just says: The alpha port status page has been removed now that the port has progressed to the stage that anything not in proper working order can be treated as a bug instead of work-in-progress. So the question I'm asking is whether the aplha kernel developers feel the alpha port is stable enough to "bet the farm on". I run a website on which we expect to see 5-10 million hits/day (spread amongst several servers) with database access, cgi scripts with some sql lookups - a very dynamic site. I need the same kind of triple digit uptimes I'm used to with FreeBSD and other unices. Is the alpha port at this stage yet, or am I safer sticking to x86 for the time being?
