Subject: [9fans] Hbench:OS on Plan9 - a comparison with Linux - more measurements

greetings,

thanks for taking the time and performance test plan9.

does your table always mention the fastest system first? (ie do you switch plan9 from left to right
when going from 'Where Plan9 was faster:'
to 'Where Linux was clearly faster:'


> HW: 200Mhz 64MB Pentium with a 3GB Quantum IDE disk

Is it consistent with plan9 ideas to have a disk on the test machine? should it not be connected to
a file server instead?


Best Wishes, Bengt
