Xdebug 2.1

Phoronix: "With the stable release of FreeBSD 8.0 arriving last week we finally were able to put it up on the test bench and give it a thorough look over with the Phoronix Test Suite.

We compared the FreeBSD 8.0 performance between it and the earlier FreeBSD 7.2 release along with Fedora 12 and Ubuntu 9.10 on the Linux side and then the OpenSolaris 2010.02 b127 snapshot on the Sun OS side."

Phoronix: "Yesterday marked the release of Phoronix Test Suite 2.2 and it was the best version yet with the addition of many new exciting and useful features.

While this release was gratifying, there are much greater plans for the Phoronix Test Suite going into the next decade."

Phoronix: "Linux-based benchmarking has become easier and more robust with the release of Phoronix Test Suite 2.0 and PTS Desktop Live 2009.3."
