Realistically looking at it, you could start to expect to be closer to running OpenBSD instances first. Optimistically, that should mean your choice of operating system does run too, but not necessarily be supported the way you would expect it, coming from OpenBSD developers. Very likely it is quite a lot better than corporate support you get anywhere else in all meanings of the word. > I'd be happy even without a graphical interface, if the clients can > run in xvfb mode and have graphical connections via VNC.

Hold your horses, next time you'll be doing profiling and complaining for speed and fictitious scores compared to product X of some sort. In fact I see no meaning attached to this question since you're planning to run a completely different kernel that ticks in a different way and does not benefit from any similarity with the wonderful OpenBSD. > Thanks in advance for any info on this. The way I see it, rushing it is wasting time empty talking, so I've taken the opportunity to reply on my behalf, without being part of or associated to the project in any form. Except using the software and having fun every second and generally being very confident decisions are taken thoughtfully and support and appreciation eventually useful feedback and contributions is all that is needed. Or better, read it from the developers, but please don't waste their time with sensationalism questions.
