And maybe the wise can send out word of doing well on FreeBSD, so we can
choose a better setup with looking forward repeating the test under
'tuned' conditions? I'm willing to perform some tests within the next 4
weeks when our server hardware (Dell PowerEdge 1950-III with two
if_bge() NICs and 16GB RAM) changes OS from FreeBSD 8.0 to RedHat Linux.
In a time-window of about a week I might be capable of testing FreeBSD
8.0 as it would be that time by the mid of November with a setup of
Linux (distro doesn't matter as I can choose). I need to know WHAT,
WHERE and HOW. Thanks.
