Wow. That's impressive. Thanks for sharing that! Especially the specifics of your FreeBSD setup. It helps in deciding what to try first.

You mentioned heavily loaded servers...are you talking about the number and type of services running on them, or how heavy the traffic is? Or maybe their load averages?

Your server setup sounds sweet! How much of an onslaught are your FreeBSD servers able to stand up to (might need to mention hardware specs of the server to make it meaningful, I guess)? By onslaught, I'm thinking of something like getting slammed with a "Slashdotting" or digg-type peak of server request all at once.

Thanks again! FreeBSD sure sounds n--i--c--e to my geeky heart...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
