What I've found is that SC will run more predictably and evenly on
Linux than XP.  XP requires some work to configure it to disable
services that will kick in and interfer with SC operation - AV scans,
automatic updates, etc.  XP has everything enabled and you have to work
to disable it.  Linux takes the other approach and disables everything
(servers, daemons, etc.) and you enable only what you want/need.

This is what drove me to set up a Linux server rather than run SC on an
XP machine.
