He might have got further by volunteering to create and supply profiles for those specific workloads that were faster in 4.x than 6.x on UP machinery etc... i.e. help make 6.x better rather than discourage the development team (whose efforts are much appreciated by the rest of us that are happily using 6.x...)
I recently ordered some servers from a datacentre on lease, specs were UP p4 2.8ghz gig of ddr2 ram and sata hd, intel lan card. None of the servers would boot in freebsd 6.x, they booted in freebsd 4.x but needed a pata controller, they only worked properly in freebsd 5.x.
What's the Problem Report number of your bug report? Does it contain the error message of the problem (if there's one), a detailed description of the hardware, and anything else what may be interesting to know about this situation?
It seems their are 2 major problems with freebsd at the moment (1) is the hardware support is still way behind both linux and windows and its very frustrating in the amount of datacentres that dont support freebsd. and (2) the uniprocessor performance remains below par.
What's the PR number of your report where you describe under which specific load (and how to produce/simulate this load) it doesn't perform as fast as other operating systems?
