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.
