Hi, I've done some benchmarking on our new servers (being built now), AMD X2 5600, gentoo-hardened.
With the same CFLAGS (safe cflags: -march=k8 -O2) I've tested the following configs: 1, emerge ruby rubygems, then gem install mongrel (or emerge mongrel, the performance was similar) 2, download the same ruby version, untar, ./configure, make, make install, download rubygems, install it, then gem install mongrel the test script: a simple mongrel handler which writes "hello world" in its "process" method the benchmarking suite: ab2 -n 10000 -c 10 http://localhost:800/test for the pure gentoo branch I got at max. 700 req/s for the 2nd test case it's around 2400 req/s Having the same CFLAGS for both builds, the only thing I can think of is that some gentoo patches are responsible for this. Just for the record :) With regards, Ochronus
