For what it's worth, on UP, my 386 (stop laughing) is showing twice
the inbound and outbound tcp throughput across multiple apps compared

impressive.  If 6.0 can show gains on a 386, that tells me there is
some actual merit to the changes.

The news I read about fFreeBSD-6.0 is quit good lately. I might even
upgrade my 5.4 box. I'm told it will be a rather smooth proces.
For my private Desktop machine I didn't run into any problems - and I am no kind of FreeBSD guru.


The *ONLY* question is: will I need to *recompile* all installed ports
if I go from 5.4 to 6.0 release?
Probably not, but there are about 13000 (or so) ports available.
I guess you will have to try and find out.
You should be cautious if you depend on OpenOffice.org , this stuff is always quite sensitive, though I have got 2.0Beta running very well.

Uli.
