Define in terms of pages served per a specific time period. (examples: "200 pages per second" or "one million pages per month".) Define your pages (examples: "Serving Drupal" or "custom PHP pages" or "proxy to external web pages with custom CSS" or "static pages".) A "web page" can be delivered with very little compute resource, or with heavy compute requirements.

Computers can be very small, or very large. Be specific about your hardware. Be specific about the database environment. How large a database, how complex a schema, and how many transactions are required in a given time period (per second, per minute) to deliver your web pages?

Why don't you test both OSes, on the hardware you intend to use, with the software you intend to use, and find out? Install and configure each OS and the software you intend to use, execute typical transactions, and log resource consumption and elapsed time -- then make your choice.
