Comment Re:Linux is not the fastest. No excuses. (Score 1) 816
I just read a Web-Benchmark in c't (http://www.heise.de).
They used a SMP-Patch. And then Linux was in every test at least as fast as NT, if there is only one network-card in the computer. If they used two network cards NT was about 100% faster than Linux. NT was very, very slow when using Perl-scripts.
They showed also a test on Mac OS X. The results shows very good performance of the Mac OS X although the Mac hardware was no comparable with the hardware used for NT and Linux system (i.e. 128MB RAM in Mac and 2GB in NT/Linux-Server). But it seems, that Mac OS X has a bug which causes a "system panic" when using special CGI-Scripts.
