I agree. GCC on 64 bit was much faster than aCC itself but unfortunately 64 bit
gcc is damn flaky. GCC folks returned acknowledgement of my bug report after
more than 3 months. Can't help. It's not there yet.
But again, whatever pain developer undergoes(until one is totally familiar...)
are amply conpensated by extremely stable user experience and workload handled.
As I said in last post, If I need these kinda functionality, I won't mind paying
20K$ for it.
Only one thing I can't bet on is, how much is contribution of OS and how much is
of hardware. If I can, I will try to benchmark linux against HP-UX on same
hardware. Then I think both of them will be on equal footing.
Really I want to play around solaris and AIX. Got to see what those beasts
are...
