I strongly dislike the benchmarks on the below URL, its very
misleading..
The Modperl handler benchmark, which was done on a dual P3 500mhz on
Linux does serious injustice to mod_perl. Anyone who uses Linux knows
how horrible it is on SMP, I think some tests showed it uses as litle as
25% of the second processor..
I don't think the benchmarks can be taken for anything, you have
benchmarks running on different Architectures other then PC based... 300
mhz on Sun is totally different then 300 mhz on PC based products....
and the real number that drives this benchmark is HITS/S/MHZ..
I think for any real test that means anything, there needs to be some
controlled factors, ie: the hardware and operating system..
