I would be very interested in anyone's recollections of how Solaris
eventually turned out performance-wise, say version 9+, compared to
other operating systems. SunOS, Linux, AIX, etc.
I find it's about equal, and even exceeds Linux in terms of it's NUMA
support and multi-processor support. I need to move some systems away
from Solaris and off to Linux, and I find it's NUMA support lacking in
certain ways.
