well, in fact I'm barely able to install a Linux on our existing  
hardware. My first attempt to put a debian on the fujitsu RX300  
(first gen) with a good kernel (more than 4Go RAM and SMP) is an  
absolute failure. I'm very far from being able to deliver benchmarks.  
But well, it's my very first debian install.

By the way, I understand that installing a native java on FreeBSD is  
not straighforward, isn't it ? one have to go with a java in  
compat_linux and then build a java for the freebsd host, is it right ?
