Can we also include OS ?
I'm particularly interested in performance figures of NT against *nix to
help my case to ditch NT in a project which has yet to go live.

Since this has potential for becoming another long thread with people
posting their stories and some other people flaming for not doing things
in a certain way, I have suggestions for this monster thread in the
making:
1. Everyone post information in the format at the end of this mail
2. Send it in a private e-mail to me if confidentiality is a problem
(or pick someone you trust, more than me, and have them e-mail it
to me :)
3. I will consolidate the information and dash it off to Ask or whoever
maintains the perl.apache.org
What do ye think?
