Kris,

thanks for reply. I did not provide any special tests for performance, I catch it just working on my workstation - P-4, 3 GHz, 512 MB. Long time ago (several monthes) I've used Gentoo Linux, but siwtched to FreeBSD because of better performance especially when I work in X. About the port set: what do you mean under "> upgrading your ports properly"? I've downloaded the ports.tar.gz (about 30M) and untarred it to /usr/ports. what else?

Hello,

Maybe it's my own opinion but I've discovered that 6.0 kernel is much slower than 5.4, I mean GENERIC in both cases.


It's only your own opinion until you share with us the measurements
that led you to conclude this.  FreeBSD 6.0 is much faster than
FreeBSD 5.4 in my measurements, especially in the area of filesystem
performance.


And, as well, 6.0 works right with the set of ports come with it in distribution inly. Nearly any new port can not assemble with differnent errors, mostly like: "The version of library XXX is installed, it's conflict with XXX-1, please do pkg_delete, and pkg_add then". But after than nearly nothing works.


This is not a FreeBSD 6.0 problem, it indicates that you aren't
upgrading your ports properly.

Look into the portupgrade tool, and if you have specific problems with
using it, then post specific questions.

Kris
