>>> is there any benchmarks or proof that I should host a high traffic site on a >>> FREEBSD/APACHE instead of a redhat Linux/Apache server? I have _heard_ that linux is great under medium load, but does not deal as well with super-high loads as well as freeBSD. that has not stopped me from using linux in all of my commercial installations, with not a problem once :) I think the answer is to say: we'll use apache, on (insert your fav. *nix here) - in a cluster of webservers that can be easily expanded as the need arises. I personally dislike sun: expensive, hyper-proprietary (almost worse then MS, because its their hardware as well), and really_really_rude What's great about both FreeBSD and Linux: commodity hardware! cheap! easy to get! cheap! It's easier to build in redundancy than it is to engineer 100% uptime. _alex
