Linux 2.2 is known slow at TCP/IP throughput, but did you test Linux 2.4? it is very different. while Linux and FreeBSD are being improved, some guys here are still comparing FreeBSD with Linux 2.2, it's unfair, useless and waste time. please stop doing such a stupid thing! -- David Xu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
