Not really a surprise that FreeBSD excels even with lower end hardware.  Windows can't even use a third of its burst capacity while FreeBSD is nipping at the maximum...

FreeBSD is the utlimate OS, well anyway in my opinion, if you run the new 5.0 hyperthreading on a dual xeon oh my my. As soon as it goes stable thats going on there hell yeah, I think I got hard thinking about it
