I'd be interested in seeing this same performance benchmark run against various other OSes. In particular DragonflyBSD since it has a lockless network stack.

And FreeBSD for good measure given that Whatsapp runs an Erlang/FreeBSD stack and has documented 2-3M connections themselves.
- chrismccord 11y agoWe were shocked how well stock ubuntu performed under these tests. With the stories of freebsd tuning, we expected to hit an OS ceiling, but other than a dozen shell script lines setting some sysctrl limits, everything else was stock. I would also be very interested in how other OS's perform.
