Yes, very interesting. I'm using gentoo with a 2.4 kernel and felt the
box sooo slow sometimes while other times it seems reasonable.
For example doing setiathome crunching linux is 40% slower. Or
compilation is awfully slow (big projects like gcc 3.2.2 can take 2-3
times the time on hp-ux 10.20).
It seems that in some "traditional" unix areas HP-UX is faster while in
other it is slower.

HP-UX fork is fast! linux 2.6 seems to bring some relief here. I always
marvel how fast HP-UX is when responding to a telnet login.
Instantaneus. Probably fork() speed compensates the lower latency linux
has in other areas.

seems that for AF_UNIX and TCP pipes 2.42. UDP is almost the half than
2.6

traditional pipe, af_unix and TCP are impressive for hp-ux. Really up to
ten times the bandwidth?. But memory is clear an advantage for linux.
Thanks for the testing.
