Kernel comparison: Web serving on 2.4 and 2.6 (developerWorks)
developerWorks reports
on IBM's kernel benchmarking work. "We've shown that, using a
typical test scenario -- Apache/WPT on an 8-way SMP IBM xSeries system --
the Apache server has better scalability and performance on the 2.6 kernel
compared to the 2.4 kernel. On the same system under the same workload, the
Apache server with 2.6.0-test5 kernel more effectively used system
resources and served 5 times more Web pages than the 2.4.18 kernel
did."

Kernel comparison: Web serving on 2.4 and 2.6 (developerWorks) Posted Feb 11, 2004 21:17 UTC (Wed) by j-harris (subscriber, #18472) [Link] It's a real pitty that there isn't a further comparision on Win2K and orWin2K3 on the same hardware serving the same pages using IIS and Apache2. I'm sure the results would be 'interesting'
