    Hi,
       I've been an active Linux user for some time now. On my new machine I
    am tinkering with idea of installing FreeBSD.
    I use my machine primarily for telnetting to other machines and net
    access. Can anyone tell how is FreeBSD performance as compared to Linux
    in networking area and how easy it is to tinker with(like we can
    load-unload module in linux)

    Thanks in advance,
      Rishi
