Again, what exactly is the response you're hoping for? Multiple people on multiple occasions have acknowledged that Linux is faster than Solaris on some benchmarks. It seems to me like all you want to do is rehash the same points over and over ad infinitum and counter any disagreement as vehemently as possible. If you want to help Solaris performance, you should do one of the following: 1. Work with the performance group (via perf-discuss) to make sure that the benchmarks you think are important are being run internally to identify regressions. 2. File a bug with a specific, repeatable benchmark with clear results comparing Solaris to <insert OS here>. 3. Take an existing Solaris performance bug and root cause the underlying performance problem, adding the necessary data to the bug report. 4. Take an existing Solaris performance bug, create a fix, and ask someone to sponsor (via request-sponsor) your change. AFAICT you have done none of the above, so I'm not sure what you hope to accomplish via this thread. If you don't want to help Solaris performance, why bring it up on osol-discuss in the first place? - Eric -- Eric Schrock, Solaris Kernel Development http://blogs.sun.com/eschrock _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
