[Mapguide_users] RE: mapguide, php, and linux

I have had much better performance on Linux. Where on Windows it took 4
seconds for zooming, on Linux it took about 2 seconds...

Read this:
===================================

We also tried comparing a Windows to a Linux based server on identical
hardware and Linux was faster by quite a margin. Not sure why, it's some
kind of a mystery.

Subject: RE: [mapguide-users] Using Symbols strange behaviour... BUG?!


We now installed Mapserver Enterprise on Linux (RedHat), and strangly
enough the symbols are shown correctly here?! Isn't that strange? I
packaged the map from the windows server and loaded it on the linux...

 

Also, the Linux version is about 3-4 times more quickly than the windows
server. The linux now has a PIII proc, while the windows has a Xeon.
When map loading time on Windows is about 15-20 seconds (depending on
the map of course) the same map on the Linux server loads in 8-13
seconds!!! 

 

I now have set up a map that loads in 5 seconds. Zooming and panning
takes about 2 seconds. And it has not failed to load yet! 

 

I only hope that we can still use access databases...

I don't have any benchmarks or anything on servers with similar
hardware,
but from what I've seen so far, Windows seems to perform a little bet
better.  Again, that's purely anecdotal and not based on any real
testing.
