Hi, that is true but he was not testing the ftp transfer rates but instead "... use Postgresql for our database needs ...". So I think that makes a difference. > There is such a big performance hole that it's really uninteresting if one > runs syslogd on one machine and not on the other... Again he was not complaining about bad FreeBSD performance but he compared two OSes and came to the conclusion that FreeBSD is not his first choice. So his test was quiet good because his result was that FreeBSD is not the operating system he would recommend. So what I do not understand is why he is sending the mail. I mean I do not want to offend/critisize anybody but he did the test and the result was clear - so he can trust in that. He tried to run his test in a standard environment (although if I had done it I would have used an official release of FreeBSD and not current) and I only wanted to point to some "disturbing" variabels ... that was all. Maybe there is a performance problem with FreeBSD - but again that was not his question.
