JDK performance FreeBSD / Linux

[Mailing lists]

Hi all,
I have to migrate an old machine (FreeBSD 8.3 + OpenJDK 6 + Tomcat 5.5)
to a new hardware and respectively looking for answers :)

One of the options is to use FBSD 10 the other one is 'some Linux'. In
the past there were penalties for using FBSD + Java, not sure what is
the situation now. The hardware will be 2x processors E5, 64GB RAM -
running multi user Java app on Tomcat 7.

I have to defend the decision to use FBSD but need to have something in
my pockets.

What would you suggest as info, any advices, thoughts?

Thanks!
Todor
