Actually, that's _exactly_ what the question was. Read it again.

Given that Linux, on the same hardware, ran slower than FreeBSD,
I was wondering how much slower VMS would be than Linux on the
same hardware.

Those differences, on the same hardware, are due to different OS overheads,
so yes, that's _exactly_ what the question was.
