Nathan Boeger reviews FreeBSD 4.1 for Web Techniques: “…for speed and security, FreeBSD is the way to go. In no way am I trying to say that Red Hat, or Linux, is inferior. Linux has very good desktop uses, and works well in some server situations. But, the FreeBSD 4.x tree is by far the fastest OS running on Intel hardware that I’ve ever seen.”
