I mean size of the install. Kernel-performance-wise,
they're about the same,
since the newer releases of NetBSD are becoming closer and closer to
OpenBSD by design (particularly to take advantage of the security in OBSD).
Of course, this differs from arch to arch. Maybe there's little difference
between the two on Sun as far as install size there too.
OK, I've tried NetBSD 1.4.1 on Alpha and PMAX, and OpenBSD on Alpha and
Sparc. I found it a lot easier to do an install of OpenBSD on a small disk
than NetBSD. NetBSD seems to be a total nightmare in less than 1GB based on
my experience with the PMAX port.
