Up to now, there have been no Solaris related problems.do you know about the performance? if you compare a modern, fast linux server - connected to the SAN as well? i think the solaris machine will perform well if you need to run multiple ZEOs...
Since ZEO is mostly IO-bound. Decent Sun hardware I've worked with was not much slower or faster than decent Linux systems. If you have multiple ZEO servers consider using dedicated drives in case of a setup with high IO.
But this applies to Linux as well.. Andreas
