This sort of thing is complicated, depending on OS, workload, application design, etc, and your mileage may always vary.
- windsurfer 17y agoSomehow I don't think that information could be "balanced" coming from the freebsd.org domain.
- antonovka 17y agoI think that's an unfair judgement of what I've found to be a very high level of professionalism FreeBSD in general, and Kris Kennaway specifically. Kris is the author of most of the work there (done as part of his work on performance improvements in FreeBSD).
- windsurfer 17y agoYou still can't ask how is BSD from a BSD guy and ever expect negative results...
- antonovka 17y agoWhy not?
- windsurfer 17y agoWell, I mean, it's like asking a coffee drinker what they think of coffee.
- antonovka 17y agoNo, it's like asking a coffee producer what he thinks of his competitor's coffee. If he's a professional, he'll give you an honest opinion. You don't think the FreeBSD kernel engineers are capable and willing to objectively evaluate other software implementations?
- windsurfer 17y agoBut he's being biased when he inevitably says "Mine's better".
- apotheon 17y agoSo . . . the only way someone can be "unbaised" in your view is to say "What I use sucks."
- apotheon 17y agoIf the guy's generating statistics for the purpose of determining where it needs to improve, I think his stats are more likely to be useful.
