I mean..when you have to read this list, and see people wonder which
end of a SAN connection owns the responsibility for fsck'ing a SAN
filesystem, I wonder how quickly I can bone up on Linux.
In ten years at Network Appliance..wanna know exactly how many FreeBSD
host installs ive seen besides Yahoo?
2.
How many -non- Linux SAN configurations? Probly 80% of all SAN I see
and work with are Linux based.
Fbsd NFS client performance is 1/3'd that of a tuned linux box, can
you say ../..? If you can, you know what its like to never have a
valid directory attr cache on your mounts. (ick) Automount...dont
even go there.
Im in this for the long haul..I like Fbsd, and as long s lynx and
apache still work on it, im happy. As for the future..I just dont see
much serious future there unless it grows up.
Rememer when Linux couldnt do _crap_ and Fbsd 2.5 was the bomb? I
do...I want like to see that again.
I'd like to see FreeBSD on top too, I really love and care for it but
I'm very disappointed and ambivalent with the projects current state
of affairs. I think one project that should be attempted is to get
FreeBSD running on top of a Linux kernel. This could potently solve
FreeBSD's biggest problems.... We could mold it (the Linux kernel)
into are own kernel while still maintaining compatibility with the
real Linux kernel tree. anyhow... it's something to think about.
