Another article, which might be OT to the thread but nevertheless interesting:
http://john.redmood.com/osfastest.html
It is co-authored by a Lyris dude and looks at OS choices and performance-related sub-topics.
I was wondering when someone would bring that up.
I saw that article. I tore them several new openings, and did the same for Amber Ankerholtz (publisher of _SysAdmin_) for allowing such garbage to be published in her magazine.
Basically, these guys don't know crap, and they were using the article as an advertisement for their stuff. They should have stuck to the OSes they know and not bothered with trying to include things that they know nothing about.
I've tried to write decent quality articles for _SysAdmin_ in the past, but Amber's editorial team really let me down, and I have now sworn off them.
I am working on a book on a different subject, and I've got a booklet idea in the wings on a more closely related subject.
