"At Phoronix we are constantly exploring the different display drivers under Linux, and while we have reviewed Sun's Check Tool and test motherboards with Solaris in addition to covering a few other areas, we have yet to perform a graphics driver comparison between Linux and Solaris. That is until today. With interest in Solaris on the rise thanks to Project Indiana, we have decided to finally offer our first quantitative graphics comparison between Linux and Solaris with the NVIDIA proprietary drivers."

I remember it was just a few years ago, Solaris had a terrible reputation for being slow and unbearable on x86, things have changed big time. I hope that with further development it'll result in Solaris overtaking Linux in some areas, along with improved hardware support.
