D.6 NetBSD
These results come from NetBSD Version 1.6.1 (released April 21, 2003). Table D-4 and Figure D-4 summarize the NetBSD results. NetBSD actually performs almost the same as OpenBSD. The best configuration yields about 90 transactions per second. Unfortunately, NetBSD doesn't support coss or aufs. I built a custom kernel with these options:
options NMBCLUSTERS=32768 options MAXFILES=8192 options MSGSSZ=64 options MSGSEG=512 options MSGMNB=8192 options MSGMNI=40 options MSGTQL=2048
