Thanks, as I am new to the project let me update myself and warmup with the concepts and I get back to you if I could come up with something interesting regarding what you mentioned Saman

Thanks a lot, Interesting.


Looking forward to seeing the benchmark! -
there are a couple of things I can think of that
would be worth including that might not be so
obvious depending on how much you track the project:

- io scheduler vs not (see dsched(4))
- hammer(5) vs ufs

perhaps others? shm sysctls come to mind..
of course swapcache(8) allows for some flexibility -
not sure how relevant that would be for a DB test..

anyhow..
