Correct, it's MIPS. My point is the embedded device and cheap netbook I've used aren't likely to be powerful enough for zfs. I have the impression that common ARM-based appliances today (like DLink's DNS-323 NAS, 500 Mhz Marvell 88F5181 proprietary Feroceon ARM) would have similar performace characteristic and was wondering whether they are truly feasible targets for opensolaris and zfs. > That said, ARM is interesting because the chips just recently got a > lot faster at the same power/price point, like >1GHz. using zfs on THAT might make more sense :D -- Fajar _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
