I've mantained for several months a LPAR with Debian running Oracle and JBoss in order to evaluate its performance face to DB2 and WebSphere. I've heard about Linux 2.6 would already support S/390 arch without special needs for patches and stuff. I'm fascinated with its performance over x86 and i would like to test it over s/390 ... so what do you say? Many thanks for this wonderful "port" and for your further answers! Paulo Pires
