It depends on the kernel. There are reports of SuperServer running very
well on some -smp kernels, and also Classic having problems with SMP and
2.6 kernels. I'm still experimenting and trying to find combinations
that work well - will report results at the Firebird Conference in
September

So far, the only sure bet is 2.4.x kernel and Classic, rest depends on
your 'luck' ;)

All Linux distros can run Classic. You just need to install xinetd or
inetd to accept incoming TCP connections.
