sub-standard; if it's supported by Solaris, there's a fair chance the
driver takes full advantage of the hardware. (Netgear GigE drivers
on Linux are abysmal.) -- justin
I think the issue with Apache/Solaris is that process switches take
a long time on Solaris.
So if one uses worker and few processes (i.e. lots of threads per), then
Solaris should be fine?
