Just saw this shot benchmark on Phoronix dot com today:

It may be worth to discuss the sad performance of FBSD in some parts of
the benchmark. A difference of a factor 10 or 100 is simply far beyond
disapointing, it is more than inacceptable and by just reading those
benchmarks, I'd like to drop thinking of using FreeBSD even as a backend
server in scientific and business environments. In detail, some of the
SciMark benches look disappointing.

Why SciMark?

SciMark FreeBSD : Oracle, Mflops

Composite       884.79 :  844.03 (Faster: FreeBSD)
FFT             236.17 :  213.65 (Faster: FreeBSD)
Jacobi          970.76 :  974.84 (Faster: Oracle)
Monte Carlo     443.00 :  246.27 (Faster: FreeBSD)
Sparse Matrix  1213.64 : 1228.22 (Faster: Oracle)
Dense LU       1560.39 : 1557.18        (Faster: FreeBSD)


The threaded I/O results (Oracle outperforms FreeBSD by x10 on one, by x100 on another test)
or the disc TPS ( 486 : 3526 ) sure look worse and are worth looking into.


Anyway these tests were performed on different hardware, FWIW.
And with different filesystems, different compilers, different GUIs...
