Don't know if it helps any, but there is a comparsion for web serving here:
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-web26/

They compare 2.4 v 2.6. Anyway, conclusions for all to see.

See if you can find out the kernel version. If 2.4 I'd highly recommend going 2.6 (uname -a would get you that info).

Dare I say it, but maybe Windows does have better IO performance then Linux. I'm not a linux nor a windows bigot. Whatever works best, I use.
