Why the fuck is this OS so autistic?
Holy fuck this is actually the worst os

Can someone explain this one? I can’t say I had numbers this high, but it always does seem quite a bit higher than some loonix distros I’ve tried like Void, Gentoo, Arch, and Alpine. What gives? I thought Linux was supposed to be bloated? At least that’s what all the BSD shills keep saying
Benjamin Evans
Yeah, htop is a fucking resource hog.
Matthew Moore
I'd need to see what he's actually doing. He needs to hit up a "procstat -v" for his shell process or something. My guess is just that the FreeBSD shared libraries are bigger or something. (Maybe it's wasted memory because FreeBSD doesn't support relocation or ASLR, lmao)
Adam Watson
More so on BSD? I used htop on both as far as I remember. BSD is missing free(1)
Alexander Cruz
vmstat
Luis Torres
It actually wouldn't surprise me if it's more of a hog on BSD because it needs to go through some /proc compatibility bullshit
Levi Diaz
htop was made for linux, that's why
Daniel Scott
First of all, there's a bunch of desktop-usage specific optimizations you should make to the kernel and a couple other things. Google FreeBSD desktop guide or some shit to find those. OpenBSD is a better desktop system IMO, the defaults just work
Next, as other anons have said, ext4 isn't going to play nice with BSD, especially not FreeBSD. In general it sounds like you're treating BSD the same way you were treating Linux. While they have some similarities it's a totally different system, spend time reading the manual which thankfully is very good
t. bsd autist, here's some computer tiddies, have a good day

>htop, an interactive process viewer for Unix systems. It is a text-mode application (for console or X terminals) and requires ncurses.
>Unix systems
Bentley Adams
It still depends on the /proc interface, which is more of a Linux thing at this point
This is probably the guide you're thinking of: cooltrainer.org
Jason Sanders
read the htop source
it uses some kind of workaround on bsd

What did you expect, nigger? Just install OpenBSD.
Ayden Morales
FreeBSD's hardware compatibility is already bordering on unusability, OpenBSD is even worse.
Wyatt Lewis
OpenBSD user - this is true. BSD has a hell of a lot going for it as Linux continues to feel fragmented and macOS + Windows are steadily going to shit. Unfortunately if you plan to run BSD you need to buy hardware specifically for it.
Nathaniel Jones
If BSD can't even handle EXT4, how the fuck can it handle NTFS filesystems? Pathetic
Nathan Fisher
windoze can't handle ext4 too dumbo
Ayden Taylor
It could its just not implemented
Julian Collins
>BSD
No, thanks. I am not tranny.
Christian Nguyen
WHY DOES NOBODY MENTION THIS??
Sebastian Lee
then tell me which line of codes in windoze that handle ext4
Elijah Butler
You may as well just use Windows if you want closed-source software. Unix is for people who don't need closed-source software.
Carson Cruz
Don't lump all of the BSDs in like that; that's a FreeBSD thing.
Elijah Torres
Because DragonflyBSD is better.
Wyatt Wood
NetBSD with X was broken on a fresh install in a VM. I definitely don't expect it to work on hardware.
Ian Murphy
NTFS is not proprietary software.
Juan Flores
how
Jack Wood
That really depends on the OS. FreeBSD, Dragonfly BSD, and NetBSD have drivers for Ext2 which is forward compatible with Ext3 and Ext4 minus journaling which it does not support.
OpenBSD devs don't care about compatibility with other systems so it doesn't anything aside from UFS/FFS
Noah Richardson
The newest NetBSD doesn't boot on my PC, while previous versions used to.
What license is NTFS under?
Jason Turner
Yes, and it runs on BSD, does it not? That doesn't mean it's as resource efficient on BSD as on Linux.
