Linux Versus BSD settled once and for all

Found an interesting article today:

In summary, linux 2.6 kernel will pretty much smack around ANY BSD in terms of network performance, memory mapping, etc.

FreeBSD is the best of the BSDs.

Linux 2.4 is so-so.

OpenBSD is horrendous and should not be used for ANY network services.

Muhaha. Been waiting for this kind of data to come rolling out.
