Netbook Performance: Ubuntu vs. OpenSolaris

,----[ Quote ]
| There were a few areas where OpenSolaris had pulled ahead (GnuPG, Sunflow), 
| but in the rest of the disk, computational, and other real-world tests, the 
| results were either tied or in favor of Ubuntu Linux. Beyond just the 
| quantitative desktop performance of OpenSolaris and Ubuntu Linux, Ubuntu has 
| other advantages on the netbook when it comes to the Ubuntu Netbook Remix and 
| other optimizations for these small mobile devices. With OpenSolaris there 
| are a few annoyances with the Caiman installer and a few other GUIs when 
| running at the common 1024 x 600 resolution, etc.

| Canonical, through Matthias Klose, announced on July 11th, 2009 that the 
| Ubuntu Java development team had completed the certification of the OpenJDK 6 
| platform for Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope). This means that the OpenJDK 6 
| package included in Ubuntu 9.04 has passed the meticulous tests of the Java 
| Standard Edition Test Compatibility Kit and that it is now fully compatible 
| with the Java Standard Edition 6 platform, on both i386 and amd64 
| architectures.

OpenSolaris vs. Linux Kernel Benchmarks

,----[ Quote ]
| In a majority of the tests, Ubuntu came out ahead of Nexenta CP2, which is
| based upon largely the same packages but incorporates some of OpenSolaris at
| its core. In some of the tests where Ubuntu took the first place position,
| the lead over Nexenta was very evident and huge.
