According to us, SuSE is really suited to WorksTations and small server like Web or files server, Redhat is more suited to medium and big servers, this disto is not a Workstation or Desktop distro ...
Suse currently holds the - although inofficial (for a few more weeks at least) - speed record with oracle. 32GB ram server, 3 tiers, apps 11i benchmark. SuSE has always cared a lot about big hardware. suse leads on s/390/zSeries. suse got the 32 cpu alpha based wildfire up a few years ago. If I should ever leave suse to do my own business, on big machines I'll ONLY use suse kernels regardless of what distribution I might end up using. I do a lot of oracle stuff for suse, so I know all the things we do on the kernel side... just a comment - without any proofs, so take it as an opinion. michael
