I've got a couple of identical old sparc boxes running nv90 - one on ufs, the other zfs. Everything else is the same. (SunBlade 150 with 1G of RAM, if you want specifics.) The zfs root box is significantly slower all around. Not only is initial I/O slower, but it seems much less able to cache data. -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
