A recent published test between NT and Linux did show that NT was faster at
serving static web pages. However, it was pointed out that Linux presently
has a single threaded TCP/IP stack and if this proves to be the bottleneck,
you can be certain that some hack out there will want to make his reputation
by writing a fast multithreaded stack.
I've been running 8.0.5 on a 350 Mhz machine with 256 MB and it loads a stock database at over 600 transactions a second (with a commit every 100 inserts). Not shabby.
