jails are one of the relatively few features of FreeBSD that Darwin lacks.
Few!?!? Just off the top of my head:
- TSO (Tcp Segmentation Offload) - efficient (no copy) TCP sendfile support - Multiple MSI-X interrupt vectors (enabling RSS) - Multiple Transmit Queues per NIC - 64-bit kernel - Usable ZFS support - Dtrace works on loadable kernel modules - usable support for non-x86 / ppc arches - Local Crashdumps & "mini-dumps" - Linux binary compatibility - User controllable CPU affinity for processes and IRQ vectors
That's not exactly a huge list. Out of curiosity… how many of those were added to FreeBSD after 10.5 was released, and how many are likely to appear in 10.6 (we know “64-bit kernel” definitely will, for a start)? I know Linux binary compat is pretty old (though NetBSD’s the king of binary compat modules), and the state of ZFS on Darwin is anybody’s guess… curious about the others, though.
