Do you have any numbers to show that?

The general "feel" of a system may be a factor that obviously influences
the opinion one has for interactive use, but real, hard numbers and a
few charts with repeatable, documented benchmarks are always a better
way to make informed decisions.

Comparisons of FreeBSD vs. Solaris (especially version 10) would be nice
material for freebsd-advocacy, I guess.
