TBH, I've never gotten my hands on anything close to that much power, but I can tell you, from my experience with FreeBSD's NFS implementation on much lower-powered hardware, it uses less CPU on a system that ran debian stable for a bit. Said system is not powerful enough for ZFS, mind you.. However, I do have another FreeBSD system that is more of a desktop system. I have only 3x750G wd blue sata drives in it, in a raidz, and I've not had any io-related issues on it. Admittedly, my experiences are more "hobbyist" than enterprise, and although I do try to keep abreast of all this info, I'm so not sure how much that info helps.. I do, however, have the understanding that most of the performance issues have had to do with certain controllers simply not being configured correctly, or have the "right" firmware On a slightly unrelated note, "pics?" I would love to drool over this setup. :) -- Chuck Burns <break19@gmail.com>
