You will need 4 Xeon processors to do the 4 way SMP. I do not believe there is a database that runs native on FreeBSD and not through emulation what would even be able to take advantage of all that processing power. There seems to be very little documentation on FreeBSD's ability to run Oracle. Perhaps the money that you were going to invest in processing power would be better spent on some raid or ram. -Chris Phillips On Thu, 11 May 2000, Mitch Vincent wrote: > We're getting ready to put some serious money into a new database server and > wanted some opinions on a few possible hardware choices. > > First, is anyone using FreeBSD (4.0) with 4 x86 processors?
