Don't know if it helps any, but there is a comparsion
for web serving here:
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-web26/

They compare 2.4 v 2.6.  Anyway, conclusions for all
to see.  

See if you can find out the kernel version.  If 2.4
I'd highly recommend going 2.6 (uname -a would get you
that info).  

Dare I say it, but maybe Windows does have better IO
performance then Linux.  I'm not a linux nor a windows
bigot.  Whatever works best, I use.
