    *frown* The 5.0 development machine is running GENERIC. Being that we
    never customized the kernel, we don't have a backup copy of it. I can
    say since I'd have been the one to change it, that the only differences
    between GENERIC and what we put into service is that we always remove
    the device listings for things we don't have any use for, like ISA nic's
    and such. I almost never change any of the other features.

    If 5.1-C has debugging on by default then , yes, I'd concur that we have
    those features turned on. However the production machine was 4.8-R when
    we noticed the problem. From what it sounds, it should have been faster
    due to that fact. The only thing that's been constant in this situation
    is that the development machine hasn't changed. Everything I've done has
    been trying to change variables on the production machine to either
    match or surpass the development to bring it up to it's speed.

    Roadmap for the production machine so far:

    Upgrade apache/php to newest in ports.
    Add RAM
    Upgrade OS to 5.1 from 4.8, reinstall every package in pkg_info
    Update apache to 2.X from 1.3.X & reinstall php as is required
    Swap network interfaces between the two onboard ones
    Swap ethernet cables with the development machine
    Swap ethernet ports with the development machine
