Searching "unix linux migration" in Google would probably save you lots of time instead of waiting for list responses. Anyway, in my past experience, the bigesst difference was not so much the OS, but rather the hardware. x86 (or rather, amd64) kick other platform's a**, performance-wise, on hardware with relatively-similar budget. When you mostly run "popular" open source software, running it on Linux would usually offer additional advantage of making your life easier since the distro maintainers would take care of providing up-to-date or secure-enough packages. -- Fajar _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
