No. We have only one small web server, and we're using an old Pentium (AFAIK the oldest computer still in use) with Linux & Apache. NT crashed to often.
But I thought about the benchmark: It's possible that there is a minor bug if you use this hardware configuration. I know that Linux doesn't handle unusual hardware combinations very well: when I installed Linux on one computer, I had to fix a bug in the SCSI mid-layer before the computer was usable.
Perhaps someone (I don't have the hardware - we use 10 MBit]) could install this hardware combination and look for anomalies.
