    No, shouldn't have any trouble with that sort of capacity. The only thing that would give trouble would be your hardware ! I have also heard that freebsd is better for these sort of enterprise servers, as in it executes binaries faster.. Only heard that but i think it is true. Just gor for a serious piece of hardware, squid should handle it no probs..

    Just another point on FreeBSD: it's reputedly the most secure OS in existance (or at the very least for anything below mainframe class).

    and another vote for FreeBSD - it's nice, stable and easy to use. (given we're discussing a unix variant here)

    yea the site will be a web on air interface site so apache to run our front end and a squid backbone to send the stuff out.

    Isn't that OpenBSD? Anyway, FreeBSD is indeed very schweet smile.gif

    saying that FreeBSD is
    the most secure OS in existance
    is a big dangerous. Any OS can be locked down, or made secure by any half competent admin.
