- loeg 7y agoNot all of them are landed in CURRENT yet, much less stable/12. They'll be in 13.0; I can't speak to any future stable 12.2. On the other hand, CURRENT is pretty solid. A lot of folks, Netflix included, just run CURRENT.
- yjftsjthsd-h 7y agoWait, they run CURRENT in production? Is that... safe?
- jlgaddis 7y agoIn this particular (Netflix) case, what's the worst that could happen? One of their OCAs panics and falls over... and all customer traffic gets shifted to another OCA in the same or another location? Sure, they might run into some bug in -CURRENT, but what's the chance of a bunch of their OCAs all hitting it at the same time?
- morning_gelato 7y agoThere's at least one video online [1] that talks about Netflix's process for internal FreeBSD releases. They do 5 weeks of development and then 5 weeks of testing.

- branzo 7y agoI've been running CURRENT in production myself for about 2 years now. No problems so far.
- loeg 7y agoYes.
