Hello,
there was an interesting articel the last issue of iX-Magazin. As this article is not available online, (www.heise.de -> iX-magazin), send me your fax-number and I will provide you with that information, (written in german) or contact www.heise.de for an english version. Results:
linux is far more scaleable.
If you use 8 instead of 4 processors, performance will scale up ba 90%. If you do that with NT, you will hardly notice it.
