32 bit (i386) and 64 bit (AMD64) versions in terms of performance. In the little
bit of testing I have done, and in all of the testing I have seen, you really
want to be running this in a 64bit environment. Thus far, I have found Ubuntu
Server Edition to be a very good platform for running most server based
applications. And yes, it is Deblian based. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

There isn't a server specific distribution of it, you simply choose
the bits you want to install during setup. (I'd imagine, by server you mean no
desktop environment while running mysql, apache2 etc).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
