I think its really important to remember to take the Linux community as an example of how *not* to handle benchmarks showing your OS of choice has lesser performance than you thought. If we react calmly and try to reproduce the statistics or some related benchmarking we may actually find there are bugs in our code or even a place where optimization may be necessary. I am just curious as to why the standard generic FreeBSD distribution does not come with higher performance defaults. Certainly soft-updates are a plus in general. Why not use them by default?
