BSD's there's quite a lot of them, it depends on which one you are looking at. The 2 competitors are FreeBSD and Linux, where FreeBSD comes close to Linux. You might like to take a look at few benchmarks and comments. http://bulk.fefe.de/scalability/ http://www.farrokhi.net/blog/archives/000212.html http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,3959,1185897,00.asp http://www.itjungle.com/tug/tug052605-story01.html To me it looks like FreeBSD 5.x & forks (Dragonfly is a fork of FreeBSD 5.x) is comparitively better to the other BSD's. But still it has a long way to go, comparing with the scalability of Linux. Manu ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Most low income households are not online.
