	If it makes you feel any better, I'm in exactly the same position
and losing my battle because of NFS and SMP issues. We just got two more
intel boxes to work with on this project, one is already set up for linux
(making a total of two), when I asked my boss about the other one he said
he's not sure yet what he wants to do with it. 

	There was a similar thread to this one instigated by me a few
weeks ago. I got the same, "well run stuff that runs good on freebsd
instead" response. My problem is that my project parameters are set by my
boss (and reality) and require smp and nfs that work at least as well as
linux'. They don't, so I'm losing my battle.

boss was testing it)
