MIT OrthoServer vs. UMN Mapserver

[Ed McNierney]

Arno -

One rarely looks at "huge amounts" of raster data.  Most users look at a
SMALL amount of data drawn from a larger dataset.  We've been serving
well over 20 terabytes of imagery with MapServer for several years now
and have been very happy with the results (you can take a peek at
www.topozone.com)

If you can give us as much detail as possible about your application,
we'll try to give you more specific advice!

Hey list,

does anybody know the performance difference between MIT OrthoServer
http://tull.mit.edu/orthoserver/ and UMN Mapserver in the visualisation
of raster data (huge amounts!)?
