At work we use to have 40 queries/second on a dual xeon 3,2 box running Debian Linux (2.4.31). However, I guess I can't compare that at all. Would be like comparing apples to oranges. It all winds down to your database design... But nice to see statistics at all. I'd prefer to run OpenBSD or FreeBSD on our database servers anyway, but if you're searching the FreeBSD mail archives, Linux is still ahead in regards to speed with MySQL... To cut that short: I'd use Linux for MySQL if it is all about speed and not security. If performance ain't the first goal, go with OpenBSD (or FreeBSD) :) unluckily, I don't have a choice at work and it'll be Linux :-( ./Marian iD8DBQFEnfcPgAq87Uq5FMsRAuR4AJ0VnyuA2TMJedcOGgpkAkCT8eZHsgCg7ZLA OIl4NptdC2sOzKCLDbY0GFo= =RtEN -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
