As usual I have to be the one to say things that no one wants to hear.

OpenSolaris is a large pile of source and rocket science.
The Vermillion kit and X Windows kit is just really insanely large and

it would run on my 400MHz Pentium II a whole lot faster.

I have improved a lot since then. Really.
