Yes, not only apache, but other performance differences could be possible within an OS difference. It also appears you are running a 3rd Party drive.. which I guess could be a flag since tests #5 and #9 are writing to your HD.. What is the bus that you are using?.. maybe look into your SSD more closely??.. or at least run a speed test using the normal drives. Also, any RAID going on? What format is the file system?? etc etc.. (lots of possible variables) When all is said and done, like I said, I don't think a 302 is something to worry too much about for $750 in base hardware. ..sorry, no time for testing my own machine right now on Xbench. Maybe later. Donovan -- Donovan Brooke WebDNA Software Corporation http://www.webdna.us **[Square Bracket Utopia]**
