Thanks for your reponse, I can see that the OSX is weak on latency but is made up for in the distribution of moving data, I will see if I can find scalability stats to see how this affects user usage levels.
I have looked fedora and although it looks great will take a ot of tweaking to get it right, I had a lot trouble trying to identify the correct hardware config to have it install succesfully without getting into kernel rebuilds, this was one reason why I chose RHE3, I was drawn to the OSX for its admin tweaks, I think as always there is a trade off with this area and although I wont hit mass market sell it as cheap as I can type hosting, I am more of a specialist and I can fit 50 customers on one box then it will be profitable, however the last thing anyone wants is a performance issue with regards to databse read writes which my sites are based on.
Great start and a great help |
