Compile Kernel Question

[Lonnie Cumberland]

For a particular project as small web hosting company called 
"PeoplesQuest Web Hosting Services" we are going to be using a control 
panel  H-Sphere that  needs FreeBSD 4.11 because of  some particular 
Java dependency so I have had that version loaded onto the server so 
that we can migrate over from Linux.

If all goes well, then in the future we will update to the latest stable 
versions of FreeBSD but I am going to be carefully watching how it 
performs in comparison to various Linux versions although I am told that 
FreeBSD is very stable and performs extremely well, and better in many 
cases that Linux, under heavy loads. I would like to know more about the 
benchmarks on this so we will be trying to see what happens.

Cheers,
Lonnie
