FreeBSD 9.2-RELEASE has ZFS TRIM SSD support, ZFS LZ4 compression support, DTrace hooks and VirtIO drivers as part of the default kernel configuration, unmapped I/O support, and numerous other minor features. FreeBSD also announced FreeBSD 10.0 Alpha 4 on the same day, which is the next major feature release of the open-source BSD operating system."

  1. Relationship between Apple Darwin and FreeBSD by GPS+Pilot · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Found this tidbit here: when developing OS X v10.3, the "BSD layer was synchronized with FreeBSD 5".

    Will new FreeBSD features eventually show up in Darwin/OS X, or have the two projects been sufficiently forked to prevent that from happening?
