I'm very much surprised (maybe I shouldn't be) at the ratio of analytical to anecdotal evidence in this thread. I know that a lot of you make money by hosting game servers, and usually when money is on the line, people get a lot more serious about value for the money.
Based on the comments thus far, it seems it's *impossible* that win2k3 could outperfom *nix, and if it does for HLDS, it's only because of poorly coded binaries. Again, some sort of validation behind that would be interesting to know. Anyway, like I promised, I'll post spec/benchmark comparisons when the migration is finished.
