I would not say that. For example, my T1000 with 2GB RAM had fair performance. Now that it has 16GB RAM it has improved a lot. :-) Also, I would not call it "performance issues". The initial discussion revolved around performance deltas between SVM/UFS ./. zpool/ZFS on old Sparc hardware. > I know > from my experience, I have a P4 3.2Ghz prescott desktop with 2.5gb > ram, and a Lenovo t61p laptop with 4gb, both of them have no > performance issues with zfs; infact, with zfs, the performance has > gone up. That is because the I/O paths are an intrinsic bottleneck on such hardware. And I think ZFS handles slow I/O paths better (depending on usage patterns of course). I have no issues with old hardware, it's just old. :-) Regards -- Volker -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Volker A.
