I'm still keeping an eye on DragonFly, and hope to run it again one of
these days. I think the biggest problem in FreeBSD that DragonFly
fixes is attitude.
It's not a completely accurate answer, but attitude is certainly

Sure, but SMP scalability is one of the key goals of DragonFly, and
for it to be beaten by NetBSD (for which this is not a major goal, and
for which SMP scalability only started being worked on a year ago) is
very confusing. I haven't seen it compared with 1.12, but since no

I will - it took I think 8 days to get through the first build for 1.10,
so it'll be a little while.

Stability is important to me but I also recognize that even the best
project can become stale if one does not choose to develop the right
aspects of it. A weakness in DragonFly is that it took a while to get
to the more interesting things, like HAMMER, and will take yet longer
