@stefano great write up. Hit all major points fairly. It's good to see FreeBSD and Debian still kicking ass.

@stefano
Interesting writing as usual, and interesting result!
Maybe supporting aesni or not, or how offloading to NIC matters here on TLS tests? -

@stefano Are there any sysctl knobs/dials you'd recommend for optimising a web stack on FreeBSD?

@pertho it mostly depends on the workload. kTLS can really boost your performance, but there've been some problems with it, in the past (I think it's ok now). And tuning other stuff requires to fully understand the typical workload (Many small files? Big files, many connections? etc.)
So I can't recommend a "one size fits all" for a web stack. The default values are already reasonable for normal workloads as FreeBSD is already extremely efficient. -
