pros / cons of running a 4 cpu (16 core) system on FreeBSD. I found
FreeBSD 7 is quite scallable, said to work well for up to 8-16 cores.
but it depends of what you do. if your I/O (both disk and network) to
computind ratio is low it would scale well on even more cores.

original post. In case you think a different group may be better for
these questions, let me know. T
