Apache Benchmarks
In a web server configuration Apache immediately becomes the HTTP daemon of choice for anyone using Linux. Apache's ApacheBench is a relatively synthetic benchmark that can give us some baseline performance ideas without straying too far into the realm of artificial. We ran both configurations under 10 and 100 concurrent threads to demonstrate the number of requests per second the server can handle. These requests only reflect static HTML requests, which is useful for servers like AnandTech that run on cached pages.
This benchmark demonstrates more of what we actually anticipated with the database benchmark on the previous page. The V40z with the quad Opteron 875 performs 90% faster than the quad Opteron 250 we looked at before. It's also interesting to note the difference between Solaris 10 and SLES 9 here. As the threads increased, there was a wider gap between performance of the Solaris configuration and the SLES configuration in favor of SLES 9.

It brings up the Article Search box because I had to disable the article until we figure out the IE problem.Thanks,

Is it just me, or is it normal to have problems reading anything but the first page? When I click to go to the next page, it just brings up the "article search" box. The print version also doesn't work.Using Firefox on linux. All extensions were disabled for the purpose of troubleshooting, with the same response.
As it is right now, even clicking the article results in the "Article Search" box, rather then the article. I was able to read the first page about 5 min ago, though.

http://www.anandtech.com/systems/showdoc.aspx?i=24...Shouldn't the first graph list SLES9 as one of the test parameters isntead of two Solaris 10's?
