Hi Sanjeev, The KDE + deps checkout has a lot of small files ( around 10,000+ .h , .cpp and .h files) In addition there around 1000 .png and .svgz bin files for the artwork/icons/etc.
About nwam, I guess I will disable it. -----Original Message----- From: Sanjeev.Bagewadi at Sun.COM [mailto:sanjeev.bagew...@sun.com] Sent: Friday, March 21, 2008 10:32 AM To: manishchaks at gmail.com Cc: Bangalore OpenSolaris User Group Subject: Re: [ug-bosug] SXDE : 2 serious reliability issues Manish, Manish Chakravarty wrote: > > > This is problem in your case because, the zfs cache would have grown > during the build.

Just try limiting the ARC size. Also, do the KDE checkouts have a lot of small files ? Or does it have a lot of compressed files (ie. *gz or zip) ? If that is the case you are better off not having compression. > I know ZFS root post-install is possible.
