Seems the bigger the box, the worse the performance - there is no reason a 3.06G SMP+HT linux box should be \"limping along\" at +/- 7.5TS. Sombody needs to seriously optimize the linux client - it should be eating the windows clients alive.

Just my $.02

all my linux boxes have between 512mb and 2gb of regular memory - FC2 installs without a swap file by default..

it's the processor performance I'm complaining about - swap memory does nothing for that. only some optimization of the client to utilize smp/HT will help
