#OpenBSD is great for web development. It's fast, consistent, reliable, well documented. Works great on hardware with limited resources.
disk usage:
- server (base, no packages installed) 1GB
- desktop (200 packages) 5GB
memory usage:
- server 200-400MB
- desktop 2-4GB
Memory: 75M/533M
xenodm + cwm + xterm + httpd
Right after reboot.
With all my web dev environment running:
... + firefox + tmux + vi
Memory: 634M/1306M
This setup has 16G of RAM and that's four times more than I ever needed on #OpenBSD.
5GB on disk
31 packages installed
(182 packages total with dependences)
OR
4GB on disk
30 packages (153 total)
without libreoffice
On #OpenBSD I install those 153 packages with a single command in 70 seconds!
# pkg_add -l pkgs
Yes, I uninstalled all packages first:
# pkg_delete -X
# time pkg_add -xl pkgs
1m09.80s
# du -hs /usr
3.9GB /usr
# time pkg_delete -xX
0m22.72s
# du -hs /usr
2.3GB /usr
Tried that few times.
Persistent results (plus minus 2 seconds).
