I've always been taught to believe that a unix server does a better job at handling a website load then a windows server.

However now I'm not sure. Lets say I get a Quad Core 4GB Ram windows server and put up a major site that consumed a lot of BW and has a ton of daily visitors.

Will my Windows server slow down much faster then its Linux counterpart.

Thank You ahead of time for your help.
