FreeBSD 8.0 vs. Ubuntu 9.10 Benchmarks
An anonymous reader writes "Phoronix has brought benchmarks comparing the FreeBSD 8.0-RC and Ubuntu 9.10 Alpha 6 operating systems. FreeBSD rather ends up taking a wallop to Ubuntu Linux, but there are a few areas where FreeBSD 8 ran well. They also posted benchmarks comparing this near-final FreeBSD 8.0 build to that of FreeBSD 7.2 to show performance improvements there but with a few regressions."
A Mac was not involved in the mix. HOMOPHOBES!!!!
My Karma is going to take a hit for this, but it needs to be said.
When there's something you need to do that can't be done with Windows but can be done with Lunix, keep in mind that you can do an even better job with Mac OS X. Some argue that BSD can do it better but no one makes software for BSD since no one gives a flying fuck.
With all seriousness in mind, BSD isn't useful for anything really.

Whaaa whaaa whaaa. Looks like the other BSD user is upset because a toy distro thrashed it in simple tests.
"FreeBSD was also using the default UFS file-system while Ubuntu 9.10 is running with EXT4." TRY RUNNING THE SAME FILESYSTEM YOU FUCKING MORONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the only benchmarks freebsd lost in were O/I intensive tasks, so all this showed is ufs2 is slower then ext4 in some cases.
epic fail.
If you mod me down, I will become more powerful than you can imagine....
OSX Server? Are you serious? I hope not.
Yep. Ubuntu is Linux.
That's only one of the reasons why those of us who want a real operating system, use BSD.
Not to mention a real license. :P
