this is an old issue.. if you want to compare freebsd vs linux, then take a
look at fourth cache-off
(http://www.measurement-factory.com/results/public/cacheoff/N04/report.by-al
ph.html ) majority of vendors are still using freebsd because of its
technical superiority on higher loads... try to compare imimic and pyramid
which uses the same proxy software which is imimic's datareactor but uses
different platform. imimic is using linux with 1100 request per second while
pyramid is using freebsd with 1276 request per second with a lower hardware
than the former. vendors that are using imimic's datareactor proxy software
that can be run both linux and freebsd still choose freebsd as their based
OS because they know the technical difference between linux on higher loads.
freebsd is a rock solid if you only know how to configure it properly.

fooler.
