[rhelv6-beta-list] Apache benchmark RHEL 5 vs. RHEL 6

[Colin Coe]

I'd be interested in the output of iostat and vmstat while the apache
benchmark is running.  Also, I question your '90% faster claim'.

> RHEL 5: Requests per second: 9426.71 (10.608151 seconds)
> RHEL 6: Requests per second: 5595.64 (17.871 seconds)

5595 / 9426 = 0.593 (59.3%)

corrupted in transit.
