Aurelien, KiBi, Petr? dtrace is pretty good stuff. It originates from OpenSolaris just like ZFS. It is a freamwork (and scripting language) for tracing and performance mesurments of whole system with small overhead. dtrace is also avaible in Mac OS X, and FreeBSD. ZFS and dtrace are two most interesting parts of the cool stuff taken from Solaris and merged into FreeBSD. Not only interesting, but also usefull and very good in design and implementation. It currently looks similar that it is probably just a matter of packaging dtrace utils and it's libs, and maybe small minor tweaks in libc/ld.so, to make tracing of other libs easier. (there are similar projects for Linux, but similary like btrfs-ZFS war, they are still not mature as dtrace). In 7.2 and 8.0 kernel config i see that KDTRACE_HOOKS is commented out. Also ZFS is not there. It is really important to have all this things differencing from Linux in kFreeBSD: ZFS, dtrace, pf, clean architecture. Another important part (which can bring people) is Xen domU support. I'm actually trying to write scripts to make it simple to use (install) kfreebsd as Xen domU under Linux Lenny / Squezee dom0. PS.
