Patch to note Sun M3000 is allergic to OpenBSD right now

Saw some folks talking about Sun M3000 machines that got "bricked" by installing OpenBSD. (They aren't really bricked, but the unbricking process so far is having an Oracle Support contract and getting a hardware engineer out). Since some folks apparently pick these up to run OpenBSD, let's move

Hi, I can't really find a form on any of those websites so SSL/TLS does not really matter in this case. The only thing SSL/TLS will do is to improve CEO and load times ( if http/2 and brotli is not implemented). And as Allan said LE is not a good alternative either. With that being said - HTTPS

Hi Stefan, Thanks a lot, that solved the problem! However, I still wonder why the difference in cputime consumption between a FreeBSD KVM and a OpenBSD KVM (both just a basic install) is so huge ... now I see 643min on OpenBSD vs 46min on FreeBSD. Regards, Robert > Gesendet: Freitag, 12.

Have a look at SiFive.com -- they are probably closest to have some IP capable of running general purpose OS. You can try their Freedom SoC U500, but supported Virtex platform is quite costy... Or you can wait if their U54-MC CPU appear somehow in the market... On 01/15/18 09:25, flipchan
