I knew it! They're using Linux to run those black helicopters!

More to the point, if someone wants to send me a benchmark to run, I have
a FreeBSD box that I can boot Red Hat Linux on, with a little direct-wired
TCP/IP subnet. I'll be happy to compare the two using your benchmark of
choice.

Ah... don't just mail me the benchmarks... let me know what y'all want me to
run and tell me where to get them. I don't want to find my mailbox filled
with 300 copies of "nfsbench" tomorrow morning. <grin>
