From: lester@lsces.co.uk (Lester Caine) Stephen Zarkos wrote: > Yes, I do:) Although the tests we've done are a bit different from this sort of benchmark. We typically do more load testing, where we have one or more load agent(s) each creating multiple virtual clients accessing one or more PHP pages on another physical server. I'm trying to factualize this and come up with a benchmark that I can rely on to check performance. The initial claim was that there was no advantage using 64bit builds, but I've re-run everything on the Vista box, and this is giving me 70 seconds on the x86 Apache/PHP but 60 seconds with the x64 build. This is confirming what I thought myself, and I would expect around 40 seconds on a 64 bit linux on the same hardware. I will try a live CD just to confirm that. This would suggest that something else is going on with the Windows7 setup for it to be 4 times slower? At least what all this exercise is doing is confirming nicely that my switch from Windows to Linux on those council sites that are now allowing it IS improving performance. And since this normally happens when we are replacing a machine, the new hardware is faster as well. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
