OpenSolaris has some nice technologies, but with FreeBSD you can run zfs. With the 8.0 release you can run vimage which is essentially Solaris Zones, while FreeBSD has had jails for years and recently upgraded jails to v2. Crossbow is really the only feature not in FreeBSD that I'd like to have, although I can do without.
It is also interesting that VirtualBox is just as fast on FreeBSD as OpenSolaris, although it doesn't consume as much resources like memory and cpu. I used to use OpenSolaris but too many problems sent me back to BSD. It might work for some, but I'm better off on BSD. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
