To stir the pot here, since we are discussing a "Community Distro"
as opposed to a SUN/Oracle distro, IPS when used remotely from
halfway across the world has large performance issues. For example
in Bangalore I personally know no one outside the SUN India office
who have successfully updated packages on their OpenSolaris
installations let alone do an image-update in a sane amount of time.
In comparison things like YUM or Apt-Get are reasonable even over
512Kbps.
Having said that I am not going to make vague statements. I will
do my own testing over a 2Mbps broadband link and post
measurements.
The version of pkg(5) that will be part of b144 should deliver
somewhere around a 20% or greater performance improvement in transport
performance when used with a properly configured web and/or depot
server.
If we ever get to see b > 134!
The source is there, and you can build it you know ;)
Alternatively, you could use the bits someone made available on
genunix.org for b142:

Hi, Shawn!
Do you know about any tutorial / white paper / something explaining how
to start from the sources, and create a repo such as Rich Lowe did with
snv_142?
I wrote something in English, and posted, and something in Spanish for
our community site about how to upgrade from snv_134 to onnv_142, but
don't know how to start from sources and end with such a repo.
I understand Rich did a great job with this, and want to reproduce it
locally.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks, and best regards,
HeCSa.
Cheers,
-Shawn
