Its not about being "slow". Its about everyone being focused on the "new" version while ignoring needs for the only version suitable for production. It would be fine that 5.x is taking way longer than expected, and that the performance is well below what was promised, if 4.x was being supported as the mainstream version. The truth is that if someone in the linux camp needed a MB they'd call supermicro or Dell and get one the next day. Apparently FreeBSD doesn't have that kind of pull. If the FreeBSD foundation doesnt have $250. to support a mainstream chipset used by the world's 2 largest manufacturers, or you don't have a corporate sponsor with a single Dell machine to loan for a few days, then it says something about your "organization", or lack thereof. Linux also doesnt do a major release until its arguably better than the previous version. Another lesson that the FreeBSD camp could well learn from. You do your tweaking in the confines of your labs, not at the expense of your customer base.. "Stupid" is a choice. Its easily correctable if you ever get out of your state of denial and stop acting like a bunch of overaged college kids.Come to tems with the fact the 5.x is a year away and don't leave the base thats gotten you to where you are in the lurch.
