[cod] FreeBSD Question

[csmith]

Just to add to that, 4 is indeed better with multiple cpus than 5, 
however if you get the urge to update from 4 to anything else it will 
require a reformat to take advantage of the ufs2 file system. I believe 
more recent benchmarks have shown 6 to be back on par with the 4 series 
with SMP (multiple cpus), 7 has major improvements.
