Keep an eye on openbsd.amsterdam - they follow openbsd patches closely and care a lot about this issue. For what it’s worth, CentOS was even worse for me; for every 20 real seconds, 1 passed in centos. :v

Co-founder of Cyberia Computer Club here - we're a US-based nonprofit - part of our deal is providing good & open services. We host our own hardware in a US datacenter, and offer OpenBSD VMs for decent prices. You can see the whole shtick at https://capsul.org No filtering or snooping, you just get a box on a public IPv4 and that's it. Just wanted to toss my own hat in the ring! j3s

They're programmers volunteering their time and you sound like a sad person for treating them this way. But also, Theo is right, none of this relates to OpenBSD; it seems like you just want a pedestal to piss on others from. This is not that place.

Sounds experimental to me, but like I said, do what you like. If you don't need to run on -current, just stick to the main releases, that's my point.

My opinion is at least twice a month if you're following -current. With that said, People's opinions will vary, and unfortunately you're unlikely to find consensus here. -current is meant to be experimental, and if possible I'd recommend following the stable releases instead - that way you're on a 6 month schedule.
