Hello, anyone used sun sularis 10 open source version? How is its performance compared to Fedora 6? I wanted to try our the solaris 10, so thought I could get some advise from you all.... Thank you..
I think it's more robust than linux.
I was experimenting with a perl script that prints with no newline, piped
into another waiting for a newline terminated string.
it uses more and more buffer without releasing it.
on linux ubuntu and puppy it grinds down to a freeze most often. (power button job)
solaris just kicks the process off.

maybe you're right.
I tried the same thing using using C instead,
just a printf with no newline piped into a gets
and it behaves differently; the buffer gets flushed automatically
(on solaris at least) - haven't tried on linux yet.
