Hey guys,
The feedback is great. Thank you.
I'd have to disagree about debian being "stable". Debian has it's ups and downs, and if I would risk the downtime, debian has quite a few nice features.
As for the load, my servers run apache, rtorrent, standard services, plus a few additional daemons written specifically for different purposes(perl, very low overhead).
rtorrent is being run multiple times, for any number of users.
In reality, I have more processes running under my seedbox servers, then I do under my streaming servers, lol.
As for the question about the kernel mods, I use sysctl and apply different memory options and such, I spent about 2 months tweaking it out right, and trying to find the balance.
Overall, the systems run quite smoothly. I see many like Windows XP, and I agree for a home operating system, windows XP is nice.
I recommend you guys check out windows 7. I too feared it was the "improved" version of vista(which for microsoft would have been a nearly impossible system to use), but really, it turned out to be one of the best operating systems I have ever tried.
I know this will sound like blasphemy, but I think I like it better then XP.
it can't run on a low end computer as well as XP can, but on the high end computers(dual or quad + mem), it performs extremely well.
Windows Vista ultimate licensed in my laptop
home - Windows.7
seedbox - ubuntu
I know which OS I absolutely hate. hint: it ends with X.
I like linux even for torrents :P
never had a server, home speed is very fast! 384 kbps ftw o/
Windows 7 Ultimate. Not used linux for couple of months now. Last distro i tried was Mint 7 i think.
home - Windows XP
seedbox - linux
home connection: win 7 FTW :P
