It's skewed. I think it's not so much that the results are skewed than the fact that it's not even worth calling it a bench: - inconsistent setup - no tuning description - no optimization description - no filesystem layout descriptions (it doesn't really matter, since this one will obviously stay in memory) etc... It's just not a benchmark. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
