SciMark FreeBSD : Oracle, Mflops Composite 884.79 : 844.03 (Faster: FreeBSD) FFT 236.17 : 213.65 (Faster: FreeBSD) Jacobi 970.76 : 974.84 (Faster: Oracle) Monte Carlo 443.00 : 246.27 (Faster: FreeBSD) Sparse Matrix 1213.64 : 1228.22 (Faster: Oracle) Dense LU 1560.39 : 1557.18 (Faster: FreeBSD) The threaded I/O results (Oracle outperforms FreeBSD by x10 on one, by x100 on another test) or the disc TPS ( 486 : 3526 ) sure look worse and are worth looking into. Anyway these tests were performed on different hardware, FWIW. And with different filesystems, different compilers, different GUIs... Regards, Michael
