To put it mildly, OpenSolaris 2009.06 didn't just beat Ubuntu 9.04 in the Java
2D Microbenchmark test, this was total annihilation!!! 2009.06 performed at
least twenty times better than
Yeah, but it still gets destroyed in some other benchmarks, like this tidbit

Using Sudokut to simulate the Suoku solving performance, Ubuntu 9.04 was over
twice as fast as OpenSolaris 2009.06

This is another review of 2009.06 that was overall positive:

Although I agree with what the reviewer says about the flash player being buggy
(Adobe's fault though, I'm guessing).

What ?!?! Ubuntu can solve Sudoku TWICE as fast? Somebody better get Larry
Ellison on the phone real quick and tell him that he bought the wrong OS!

Hi
Does anyone have an idea of how to get NIC statistics on SNV?
When trying to add support for a driver, e.g. vr0 you grep for
vr.0.vr0 in the output of dumpkstat.se
But the closest that can be found is link.0.vr0.
Wow.
I decided to update my mainboard BIOS. Rebooted then ran blogbench again just
out of curiosity:
Final score for writes: [b]460[/b]
Final score for reads : 33603

Hey,
i am contributing to a project (the Enlightenment windows manager) and we use
variadic macros. More precisely, this one:

and we use it like that (for example):

I would like to know if the following attributes (supported by gcc) are

I have recently setup OpenSolaris to use as a file server (I like ZFS) and I
connect to this server remotely using SSH. In the past I used iptable rules on

Hi,
I followed the example to create a disk image using zfs on page 98 of the LDoms

however the disk images expanded on their own causing all 8 LDoms to fail. I
managed to get a few of them back by decreasing the disk

I just posted this to that board. Sorry, I did not realize those other boards
were outside of the OpenSolaris board. This post can be deleted on this board.

I can't believe this is real:

It is VERY cool though. Two thumbs up to Larry Ellison and McNealy and co.
Basic summary is this:

I was reading this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amiga
and I came up with one possible (albeit unlikely) theory. The wikipedia
article says the following:
The Amiga is not limited to solely the 68k CPU architecture; although
Commodore never shipped one, it is possible to install a PowerPC
Also note this:
The Amiga is able to emulate other computer platforms ranging from many 8-bit
systems such as the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64, Nintendo Game Boy,
Nintendo Entertainment System, Apple II and the TRS-80, up to platforms such as
the IBM PC, Apple Macintosh and Atari ST.

Most mounts need PRIV_SYS_MOUNT, meaning in practice that you

Has anybody heard of an old project that Oracle and Sun worked together on that
was called Raw Iron:
http://news.cnet.com/Oracles-Raw-Iron-plan-not-fully-forged/2100-1001_3-219129.html
I wonder if we're going to get a similar Oracle-Solaris powered, pre-tuned and
pre-configured server

It only make waves...what is not bad, by the way ;-)

Hello,
The previous thread reminds me of one surprising fact I've been
fundering over for some time.
Now I love opensolaris and I have SXCE 64bit installed on my home server
(Quad Core E6600, Asus P5W-DH mobo, 8G ram PC6400, SATA disks in AHCI
mode). Zfs of course.

That's pretty impressive stuff. Are you ever going to put up a blog or

What build of SXCE are you using?
What do you see as output from these commands:
uname -a
cat /etc/release
SXCE and OpenSolaris are both unfinished works in progress and the
performance changes radically from one build to another. Read this thread:
