Obviously they made the right decissions, but a single benchmark with a
DB server like postgresql doesn't tell the whole story. Let's see what
Phoronix will come up with. I'd like to see some more benchmarks of
DragonFly 3.2.

I doubt that the DragonFly scheduler approaches will go/flow easily into
FreeBSD. But I'd like to see it, even dumping ULE for a better approach.
