something I wonder about
I know OpenBSD and FreeBSD both have different versions of the UFS
filesystems
(FreeBSD newfs(8) -O option, OpenBSD newfs(8) -O)
has someone tried to use all combinations of all options to see if they
work?
It's funny that OpenBSD's manpage says it uses FFS, not UFS

Don't FFS and UFS refer to the same file system, the

of the two filesystems I just created on FreeBSD, FreeBSD seems to

I would just do a google search. OpenBSD is definitely more thoroughly
audited in terms of its code base. But has a reputation of being
slower then FreeBSD. And to some degree, stable enough vs. very
stable. But for your requirements that may not be a issue.

What would I recommend? Any BSD. DragonFlyBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD and

are all excellent, reliable, secure, high performance systems. There

There's nothing inherently wrong with the idea, but I personally wouldn't.
Unless you have a hardware crypto accelerator installed, FreeBSD seems to be
several times faster than OpenBSD on the same hardware. That's not a
criticism of OpenBSD

Typically, servers only have a few packages and it's not very hard to

negates the advantage of FreeBSD's larger ports

Darwin most certainly does run on x86 (Darwin supports both x86 and
PPC). OS X does not, OS X is Darwin+Quartz+Cocoa+Carbon.
I know it runs.. but there is no driver support. It supports like 1
intel ide controller chipset, etc. Basically its not that usable as a
workstation or server
