Hi,

I've tried two benchmarks to check the speed of my
system on two FreeBSD architectures i386 and amd64.
I've never seen anyone posting this kind of benchmark,
so here is what I found out:

here the results of nbench:

here is what openssl speed gives me:
http://phpfi.com/71545

Sorry for posting it there, but I don't want to
send attachments to this list.

Please notice the memory speed penalties while the
system is running on amd64 kernel. I would like to
know what causes this kind of low performance when
memory is being accessed.

Is this a hardware problem or a problem with FreeBSD?
Generally, FreeBSD-amd64 performs slightly better
than FreeBSD-i386 and it's stable as expected, but
I cannot find any solution to the memory problems
that affect memory intensive applications as you can
see.

Martin
