Linux is faster. I/O is faster.  Linux is more stable.

I have had to slow down processing to give the operating system time to 
write on Windows Server.

filePro error messages can be very difficult to pin down on Windows 
Server. (Seg violations on Linux will at least point somewhere.  On 
Windows they just crash.)

Windows has to pull things to the client to process, so slower.

Always, put PFTMP folder on local client, to speed up indexing.

Those are my general tips.
