So how does the efficiency of VAX/ULTRIX compare to VAX/VMS? Anyone care to conjecture? Charlie Tierney /* ---------- */ One of the DEC Unix people was by here a few days ago, and we talked about that. Ultrix-32 *is* 4.2BSD, with changes to the error logging code to be compatabile with VMS. Sorry, it wasn't written by the DEC VMS wizards, and isn't much faster than standard Unix. However, I hear that it *is* faster than VMS 4.0. Side note - it appears that the DEC Ultrix-32 project is going to be MORE/bsd (from MtXinu). How much of MtXinu will move with the OS is unkown.
