Panasas, who open sources pNFS, is a serious scale company competitive with Isilon and NetApp

Since Panasas contributes a fair amount to FreeBSD, perhaps they are happy as well.

Ravi never actually got around to committing that NVDIMM work :-(.

I believe NetApp has had shipping pNFS support in ONTAP for quite some time now. I don’t know how many active users though.

Why the hate? Just because FreeBSD supports the idea of making a commercial product from the code isn't a reason bag on Rick.

I didn’t detect any hint of hate in the OP’s comment, more appreciation and irony.

Isilon hasn't used the FreeBSD nfsd since 2014 (OneFS 7.2). (And prior to that, it was a heavily modified version.)
