Assuming you'll use Apache 2.x one day, I'd lean away from FreeBSD
until the threading issues are resolved. I could envision you running
1 threaded MySQL server and 1 threaded Apache server. Under FreeBSD
(today), you'd have 2 idle CPUs and 2 busy CPUs because it'd never
spread the threads from each server across the CPUs the way you'd
like.
Linux or Solaris should handle it quite well, though.
Hope that helps,
Jeremy
