It depends on speed of hardware and how good the quality of the programs
are... not only the choice of technology; Although Linux; Apache, MySQL,
PHP (aka LAMP) is one of the faster solutions out there.
http://slashdot.org/ runs this combination and serves millions
(billions) of requests every day.
You can write extremely fast and robust applications in Java or ASP on
an Internet Information Server running on a Pentium 3 with Windows 2000,
and you can write code in LAMP that kills ANY hardware, including
clusters of 100's of 4GHz 64bit server - no matter the speed of the
servers.
So I would recommend LAMP any day, its free and easy to get installed
(Debian, http://debian.org/ is a good choice) -- but most of all, I
would recommend designing your programs on a piece of paper, and read
ALOT about SQL.... before writing even one line of code.
