Heh. This 'slowlaris' has nothing to do with what kernel you are running. It's the blinking libraries/programs that come with Slowlaris 8. They are so bad that you will find an instant demonstration with the Slowlaris find and GNU find program. The first takes hours even days whereas the second will take a few minutes or even less than a minute. Same hardware, same box running Slowlaris 8. I heard Solaris 10 was much better but I have not had the chance to verify that.
