I just read some info at http://sysdoc.pair.com which kind of suggests that the Pentium Pro may be a more solid choice for building a busy SMP server (especially in quad configurations). I have also ran across some posting in the mailing list archives (can't find them now :-( ) with some knowledgable folks citing a preference of the Pentium over the Pentium Pro for busy systems with large memory stating various reasons like memory bandwidth/path. Feedback/comments welcome. - Barrett Richardson rabtter@orion.aye.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-smp" in the body of the message
