yeah, I'm not saying that you are wrong, but I would imagine there is a good possibility that the amd64 support is so new, and everyone seems to be doing their own thing, that performance may vary between distros possibly...
who knows. Valve were pretty clear about getting awesome performance differences on them before, the only reason I think that. kev ->-----Original Message----- ->From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ->[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of hondaman ->Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 2003 11:44 PM ->To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ->Subject: RE: [hlds_linux] Opteron and Xeon Server Comparison -> -> ->No, not using suse, wasn't interested in paying 450 bux for the amd64 ->version.
