You will see plenty of lost performance on Solaris. It is a very very
slow old platform. Also very little anyone can do to fix that.
For example here is a 15 year old Apple PowerMac :
hydra$ uname -a

Here is a fairly new Oracle M3000 server :

Don't go looking for performance on Solaris anymore. It isn't there.
