While I have not specifically done a linux vs NT shootout, I have worked
with many similar programs on both platforms.  My closest experience was
with the commercial database Sybase (ASE 12.0)

With the same data,  and the same database schema on the exact same
hardware, we found that linux (RH 6.1 at the time) outperformed NT 4.0 by a
considerable margin, probably around 20%.  This was based on a snapshot of
our canned reports.
