There are some more things over on the the testing community, and I'll
let Jim Walker (cc'ed here) address that part.
Finally do we collect data on an ongoing basis, but the "what we don't
do" section in the first blog entry above explains why we don't release
the data. To quote for the non blog reading folks ...
"We don't provide benchmark numbers for release - we work on out of the
box Solaris, with as little tuning as possible to create the most
realistic customer environment. Our colleagues in Market Development
Engineering and Strategic Applications Engineering are focussed on
getting the numbers that you see in press releases, so you wont see us
mentioning numbers here."
