[MapProxy] What is the best Unix platform for MapProxy production deployment?

[Sandor Csaba]

Just to add an experience. We're using it on 64bit Debian Lenny without any
problems and at very good speeds. Comparing it to tilecache.py that we used
previously it's around 8-10 times faster to seed a cache of a CEE country.

Csaba
