[JDEV] [Jabberd] Performance

[tom_waters at mac.com]

i am planning a large commercial server for jabberd.

i am pretty OS agnostic... can someone suggest what the "best" platform 
is for running a tweaked out jabberd with jpolld's and xdb_sql talking 
to MySQL is?

i've ordered a rack of 1U dell servers, so i'm already locked into 
intel...

my current plans are to try FreeBSD, because i'm more familiar with bsd 
than linux...

config suggestions?
