yesterday, i compared a (medium) linux box and a (fast) windows box and i came to roughly the same result. ( 12s-14s to import and save http://www.day.com/maven/jsr170/distributions/jcr-1.0.zip ) [FYI, the linux box was http://jcr.day.com , feel free to use that for your tests too. the contentloader should be convenient. at the level of a couple of thousand of "file/folder/resource" nodes there should be very little difference between crx and cqfs] > So are people mostly using unix/linux platforms for jackrabbit? i wouldn't say that, personally i run windows on my laptop which is the platform that i use most frequently. for production at day we use linux and quite a number of developers run macosx. i think the only substantial difference that can be noticed is on bulk-load performance, which in many repository apps is not something that is "performance critical" in the long run. regards, david
