We are starting development on a new project that would go production in the fall of 2005. I have been evaluating Release 4.x and 5.x branches for the suitability. Our target platform is AMD64 and AMD32 uni-processor systems. We like most of 5.x features except for its performance and conerns about the availability of a STABLE version in our time window, and I would like your opinion to choose the right FreeBSD version tree to start the development right now. BTW, we dont have any plans to run on SMP architecture, our target platform will always be uni-processor based. Questions are,
1. By Sep 2005, do you think 5.x performance will be optimized and be comparable to today's 4.x stable versions ?
2. By Sep 2005, do you think 5.x will be as stable as today's 4.x released versions ?
3. What is the most architecturally optimized FreeBSD version if he primary application is network services, IP forwarding and various TCP/UDP services ?
4. What is the most architecturally optimized FreeBSD version if he primary application is network services, IP forwarding and various TCP/UDP services ?
Thanks in advance. Bala _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
