Re: Redhat vs FreeBSD vs other unix flavors
You should be fine on either Linux or FreeBSD (or any other UNIX flavour). Running on Solaris would probably give you access to goodness like dtrace, but you can live without it.

I've benchmarked my deployment on Red Hat. Our operations team asked if we can use FreeBSD instead. Assuming that my benchmark numbers are consistent on FreeBSD, is there anything else I should watch out for? Thanks.

Thanks Otis. Do you know what the most common deployment OS is?

There's dtrace on FreeBSD, too. -- Best regards, Andrzej Bialecki ___. ___ ___ ___ _ _ __ [__ || __|__/|__||\/| Information Retrieval, Semantic Web ___|||__|| \| || | Embedded Unix, System Integration http://www.sigram.com Contact: info at sigram dot com
