Honestly, more and more people with big data problems are turning back to solaris kernels over linux because of how many issues there are with linux when you are really running it hard. ZFS, dtrace, and the Solaris kernel on new hardware is really a compelling argument over Linux.

I hate to be the one asking for a citation but can you share some examples of "more people" who have moved from Linux back to Solaris? I agree about excellence of Dtrace and ZFS but I'm just curious about your kernel comment.
