FreeBSD + Google Code-In 2014 = we need ideas.

[k simon]

Hello, List,

    2 ideas:

1. port DFBSD's CAM DA driver
It's doing much better than FB in heavy load with random IO, eg. squid 
or postgres databases for zabbix 1.8.
It's released within DFBSD V2.10
"CAM DA driver enhanced to separate read and write streams, allowing 
concurrent write completion in the face of many stalled read requests."

2. port DFBSD's swapcache
ZFS is so memory hungry, I'd like use the rock UFS for most other than 
nfs/samba server similar application, but curreently FB has no solutions 
can utilize SSD to speed up UFS's performance.

    Maybe it's not quite new technology, but it's useful.



Regards
Simon
