[Zope] Re: Need for advice ...

[Enrique Arizón]

 Thanks for the replies. For now I'm going to try it
with Solaris 10 for a few reasons:

1.- I try to get the most of its 6 SCSI discs, and the
documentation I found for Solaris
(http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-4520) was much
better than similiar one for Linux, including
optimizations for various scenarios (write intensive
vs read intensive, small vs large reads,...).

2.- I'm also interested in checking DTrace
(http://users.tpg.com.au/adsln4yb/dtrace.html), that
has got really good press in the media.

3.- Solaris Containers (similar to Xen, but again
better documented than Xen).

 Anyway it's true that for a "Linuxer" like me Solaris
is hard and even ugly (it took me one full day to
setup IPs&DNSs).

 If I success I will post a resume for reference.
