Mailinglists have the habit of collecting negative stories because people with positive stories don't have a reason to mail about it. So it is natural that you see a lot of bugs/patches/stability issues on the list. If you follow the Linux releases you will also see that every release contains a lot of updates to the filesystems. Most patches are for edge cases. > 2. Is there anyone that installed it in prod and can give some feedback > about stability, config? Yes, at previous job a backup server with 96 disks running rsync from a lot of servers. Runs nice. Advice: Use amd64. Install a lot of memory. Furter tuning depends on what you want to do with it. > 3. from all the mails about reccomendations I've seen, is someone in > fbsd-team taking the reccomendations and putting them somewhere in a > one-document that describes all the suggestions rather than mailing > lists?
