I have to agree with Daniel here. This list is very low traffic. If you want to reach a broad part of the gentoo community, I think the Gentoo forums could be the way to go. ( <a href="http://forums.gentoo.org">http://forums.gentoo.org
</a> ). As for the performance tests, I don't think either that the server world would give you a lot of differences in terms of performance whether you're using Gentoo or a popular server-oriented binary distro.<br>
