Tested Systems

The following systems have been benchmarked, and are part of the comparison charts and results.

  • FedoraCore v8 (raw data here)
  • FedoraCore v9 (raw data here)
  • FedoraCore v10 (raw data here)
  • OpenSolaris 08.11 (raw data here)
  • Ubuntu v8.10 (raw data here)
  • FreeBSD 7.10 (raw data here)

All systems are updated with the latest available patches and updates, as of the time of these tests (12/24/08).

Note: My FreeBSD installation under VirtualBox is fairly unstable, I can run the nbench tests reliably, but doing things like compiling emacs will likely crash the system fairly quickly.
