Linux scheduler / misc

More important is a host that can handle your load. If you need resources, you have to pay for them. Shared hosting providers love to suck people in with cheap prices, then tell them they are using too many resources, and must upgrade. Most all shared hosting is oversold, including VPSes. It took me a few tries to find a cloud hosting provider that I could depend on (RackSpace). You get what you pay for.

If you are low on money, Linux is always cheaper than Windows hosting, and it consumes fewer resources. No licensing cost with Linux.

Yes, for the server/computer that need more resources, like converting etc, it is better with linux.
Just like AMD show-off it's multi-threads power with linux.

Yep, because they can take their pick of CPU schedulers with Linux, and/or modify the scheduler's code. As opposed to waiting for Microsoft, and hoping their scheduler is behaves optimally.

Let hope it will be optimize when Windows Blue come out.
