What's New in the Solaris 9 12/03 Operating Environment

Updated mkfs Command

The mkfs command has been updated to improve performance when you create file systems. Improved mkfs performance is often 10 times faster than in previous Solaris releases. Performance improvements are seen on systems when you create both large file systems and small file systems. However, the biggest mkfs performance improvements occur on systems with high-capacity or high-speed disks.
