Don't know if you realise this, but you have to get written permission from Sun before being able to publish any Solaris 10 benchmarks.. http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/licensing/sla.xml # (f) You may not publish or provide the results of any benchmark # or comparison tests run on Software to any third party without # the prior written consent of Sun. The Linux NFSv4 folks had to get this before being able to post interoperability results with Solaris. http://linux-nfs.org/pipermail/nfsv4/2005-October/002647.html I don't believe that this restriction applies to OpenSolaris (IANAL, YMMV, IIRC). FWIW my own testing of ZFS under OpenSolaris, compared with other Linux filesystems, showed the same issue for write's but much faster read performance. This was about a year ago though! http://www.csamuel.org/articles/emerging-filesystems-200709/#id2538499 cheers, Chris -- Christopher Samuel - (03) 9925 4751 - Systems Manager The Victorian Partnership for Advanced Computing P.O.
