Preview question: NB, I am considering some flavor of Solaris for my future fileserver, Be careful Carey. I briefly installed and experimented with OpenSolaris somewhere around 2005. It was very nice except for one thing: It was sloooowwwwww. I don't mean 10% slower than Linux. I mean annoyingly, frustratingly, hair tearingly slow.
Yes: there was "Project Slowlaris" around then, to deal with some stuff that was painfully slow on the x86 hardware. I ran a SPARC laptop, but my backup machine at home was an x86, and performed well running Solaris 10. About later version, I have no opinion. --dave -- David Collier-Brown, | Always do right.
