SMP is proper. I think you meant biglock vs fine grained locking. Fine grained locking is a 10 year process. Threads are weak however no amount of work will ever unstupid threads. > thread library), no support for modern filesystems (not even FFS2!), FFS2 works just fine for me. Sure if you care about ZFS/crashfs/losemyfilesfs then that can be considered an issue. If you want ZFS you should be running solaris anyway. > suboptimal NFS performances... Not much difference from loonox/solaris. There is no debate that other OS' do things faster. If you need those things to run faster then you should be running those other OS'. Or wait until OpenBSD developers get around to it or even better help writing code to make it faster without compromising the goals of the project. So thank you anonymous person on the internet for complaining, very helpful.
