    The new dirpref algorithm is in FreeBSD-CURRENT for testing. It was there only a couple days after it was committed to OpenBSD.

    As for SMP, the original poster was referring to efforts to get good SMP support (OpenBSD SMP is basically nonexistant today) - but I do believe that's false, as TDR has said that it's a very low priority to him. And I haven't heard of anyone else attempting to implement it.
