Linux and FreeBSD is going to be your best bet. BSD is a little better
and dealing with very, very high loads. Linux tends (at least from my
experience) to be a little quicker. So it depends on your needs.

Basically if you stay with Linux (2.6 kernel) or FreeBSD (4.9+) you
should be rock solid.

Sincerely,
