-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm trying to run a QEMU VM on top of a FreeBSD 7.x server ... I've tried the exact same setup on my desktop, using 192.168.1.x and an fxp device, and it all works perfectly, but as soon as I do this on another machine on a public IP, I'm not getting any routing, I can't even ping it from the same machine ... My first thought was

[originally reported for ZFS on FreeBSD but Pawel Jakub Dawid says this problem also exists on Solaris hence this email.] Summary: on ZFS, overhead for reading a hole seems far worse than actual reading from a disk. Small buffers are used to make this overhead more visible. I ran the following script on both ZFS and UF2 filesystems. [Note that on FreeBSD cat uses a 4k buffer and md5 uses a 1k

Not sure if it''s been posted yet, my email is currently down... http://weblog.infoworld.com/yager/archives/2007/10/suns_zfs_is_clo.html Interesting piece. This is the second post from Yager that shows solaris in a pretty good light. I particularly like his closing comment: "If you haven''t checked out ZFS yet, do, because it will eventually become ubiquitously implemented

I am striking out with my usual contacts. A friend's company is looking for a contractor with some knowledge of Linux, Solaris & AIX kernels (sorry, no *BSD). I think this is easy work for someone who has done moderately complex kernel work in these kernel. No opportunity to learn on the job. My guess is the work will last about 6 months, may be a year. The work is in the SF Bay Area
