FreeBSD vs. Linux differences -


i need know if there differences between freebsd , linux in following categories:

  1. process management
  2. memory management
  3. file system management

so far seems both pretty same except file system management.

this fair question, there differences, although may not substantial differences regard needs

  • freebsd , linux have different schedulers. impacts process management, particularly regards multicore scenarios. differences cannot explained in scope of answer. freebsd time differed substantially in kernel threading model closer linux.

  • freebsd , linux have different default filesystems, although both support multiple filesystems , there cross-os support. on linux, find distros default ext4. freebsd supports both ufs , zfs.

  • many of other differences in userland. freebsd encourages building source, including kernel. linux distros default binary packaging. also, in terms of systems-administration, there can significant differences simple things arguments basic userland tools take

  • licensing matters. there desire in bsd-derived systems minimize amount of code not have bsd-friendly license, since assumed users of these systems have freedom pursue commercial interests closed codebases.
