The company I work for has a product called ConferenceRoom that is an IRC server. On NT we have no problem sustaining 10,000 concurrent TCP connections to a single process. The best we have ever done with any UNIX is about 5,500. As soon as we add in port exploders though (which are a good idea for NT anyway), we should be able to get parity between the two platforms again.
