As it is in Linux.

Care to go in more detail.

I don't have up to the minute results on the same hardware, however I have no reason to believe the situation has changed. Do you?

You actually have no real numbers then, nor do you ahev any information on Solaris 10. Solaris is now on version 10 and every benchmark I have seen to date has Solaris as fast if not faster than linux on the same box.
There is do much change in Solaris 10 when compared to Solaris 10 that your statement just means that you haven't kept up to date, and so your claim is unfounded at the very least.

I didn't make claims that i couldn't back up. You shouldn't either.

Could you post the benchmark results?

Maybe he is referring to this:

or some of the stuff on the Sun's website.
