Mongodb or PostgreSQL? Ah, that is the question...

Might need to retract to fbsd and mongodb if that does not prove out well.
Can't find a FreeBSD package of MongoDB. Does that have a supported install?

too many variables to know for sure. They could be like us and host NodeBB on a potato server
Yeah, our NodeBB platform has some muscle behind it, and CloudFlare in front. That all helps, a lot. Our working set is 100% in RAM with loads of overhead. We always have threads idle. Although we also serve several other communities off of the same machine, it's a shared server.

Just an update to note that I've bailed on SmartOS and PostgreSQL due to too many bumps in the road in favor of sticking with a well supported platform. Which pretty much translates to: "what the dev heads are using...".
I use fbsd for our in house stuff that I keep updated via build server and internal lan. When I need cloud scale smartos or linux are the best options. To wit I have not even tried fbsd and pgsql so cannot weigh in there.
Thanks for all the insights. I'll probably be back to bug ya' before too long.

Much thanks to @scottalanmiller for the advice and an embarrassing amount of hand holding. I'm now rocking an nginx tls proxied nodebb sporting Centos7, mongodb, and redis for session management.

@gotwf Thanks.
Sorry I was AWOL yesterday. I was in that Canton, TX tornado! Okay, not "in" it, but was in Canton when it happened.
