| Sorry for this off-topic message, but does anyone have experience of
| Solaris x86 on a dual+ CPU machine?
I'm using 5.5.1 on a dual Ppro/200 HP Vectra. Pretty nice, but be
sure to get/install the recommended patches. I'd rather be using
Linux, of course, but some quick and dirty benchmarks (building the
code I work on both on this box and on a colleague's box running
Linux with glibc1) show no appreciable performance improvement
in switching.
