A few things I always professed in the current N-Tier Enterprise Class Servers. 1. There is no client only a thin client(the browser being the most popular one) 2. You normally don't program to write a server but pick up an existing one(Tomcat+JBOSS) 3. No many use a micro-kernel based OS'es the last one we heard almost died an unnatural death( was it Be.....), locating a small footprint linux kernel may be worth more effort. 4. "Programming Efficiently" normally boils down to a good design when writing your own server. Now if you were coding in C a Native Linux(was it Unix ever) Server for Linux a la Apache then that is the design to follow or if write in Java Tomcat seems to be more like it. 5. Some urban legends give the notion that client software can be written sloppy but server code needs to be tight Demolishing a few myths and clarifying good design concepts applicable to be both client and server is this book http://www.catb.org/~esr/writings/taoup/
