I think he said in the mail that they are setting a record for SPEC Web
benchmarking numbers. I think it is a very visible and referred to
benchmark as far as web servers go, and it would be (800/600) as
compared to the best linux webserver. I think it is proof enough.

Would be fun to have the best SPEC number from FreeBSD and a university
and not Linux and some industrial giant :)

Thanks
