I In some, perhaps many, lower end cases, Linux did have a performance advantage over Solaris, prior to Solaris 10. But people who think that the "Slowaris" moniker still applies really ought to try Solaris again, and maybe take a look at the benchmark results and world records Solaris 10 has been setting. For example, from what I've heard, Solaris 10 is the only OS that comes near to saturating a 10 GBE link. -- Rich Teer, SCNA, SCSA, OpenSolaris CAB member President, Rite Online Inc.
