You hit it on the head, Bernard, with the 3rd-party support. We'd be
running some of our smaller ancillary DBs on Solaris x86-64 (Opterons
rock!), except IBM has stated that they will not support a Tivoli backup
client for it. As such, I'm stuck with a pair of very slow V100s.
Takes over a business day to build the 10g AS repository for OID
Naming... :(
As far as gains that Solaris has over Linux for running Oracle, I don't
have to put up with RedHat's icky licensing, installation, and package
management. And if I'm not mistaken, Mladen weren't you complaining
about kernel and/or memory management limitations in Linux in general
not too long ago? If I could guarantee that Oracle Support would
support an installation on Gentoo (no Puschitz Linux help required --
Oracle just works on it), I'd consider it, but again only for "smaller"
DBs. Our ERP's going to stay on good ol' Unix.

I must agree with Gogala : Solaris Intel exists since more than
10 years and never break through.
Beside that, what do you have more with Solaris Intel than Linux
?
You will surely have much less third party software ported from
Solaris Sparc to Solaris Intel than from Solaris Sparc to Linux..
