That's hardly an insightful comment. I wonder if you might be able to 
expand on it.

Are you saying it's not important that they are fast? Or that they are 
not important at all? Or something else?

I for one found that having an NTFS capable read/write driver on my 
opensolaris has *really* made a huge difference to the number of times I 
have had to say "awwwww, CRAP!" and started looking for a workaround 
when someone has handed me an NTFS USB stick or hard disk.

AFAIAC, any functionality in OpenSolaris that's slow enough to be 
considered crap is counter-productive to what everyone is trying to do 
with it...
