Neither is very good SMP systems. If you want a good one my advice is to go with a commercial OS like Solaris who has very good and solid SMP capabilities. I'm sure that both Linux and FreeBSD will get it in the future as well, but rigth now they are not at the same level. (especially if you want to split multithreaded apps on several CPU:s).
