I've read that ZFS runs best on 64 bit solaris.
Which box would make the best (fastest) fileserver:
Sun v120
650 MHz UltraSPARC IIi
2GB RAM
--or--
Intel D875PBZ
Intel Pentium D 3.0 GHz (32-bit)
2GB RAM
I'd go with the Intel server. If you want to build a pure file server just
increase the kernel memory with:
eeprom kernelbase=0x80000000
I have a similar machine with 2GB RAM. Without manually setting kernelbase
the machine would hang randomly during I/O operations. With above kernelbase
the machine runs stable for months now.
