cecom writes "After major improvements in SMP support in FreeBSD 7.0, benchmarks show it performing 15% better than the latest Linux kernels on 8 CPUs under PostgreSQL and MySQL. While a couple of benchmarks are not conclusive evidence, it can be assumed that FreeBSD will once again be a serious performance contender.

Some posters on LWN have noted that the worse Linux performance could be related to the Completely Fair Scheduler, which was merged into the 2.6.23 Linux kernel."
