Hi Udo, take care not to top-post, but hit reply or reply to list button 
to stay in thread.

Btw, 2009.06 was snv_111b and last Opensolaris was snv_134 that is still 
hosted in Openindiana /legacy
and enables updating to Openindiana. I did it with success through all 
those versions several times, although small changes are needed on GRUB 
but menu at the end of the Boot line, and then updating inside 
Openindiana. Last OI that supports Solaris-compatible ZFS version by 
default upon install from DVD/USB is Openindiana 151a3 so I usually 
update entire to 151a7 and then further to a8 and a9 and Hipster 
earlier, while it was still possible to update.

Because Opensolaris installs are still supported and that it works on 
Openindiana.
Because same binaries work on wide variety of Opensolaris-descendent 
OS-es etc.

Yet code it generates was usually faster.

It is not the point actually,
because Adobe Flash problem arised inside Openindiana 151a8 , because 
Flash started behaving like that after 151a7->151a8 update, with same 
Firefox version/binaries.
So you couldn't say that actually, because I still use 
Oracle-contributed binaries in Openindiana and they work just fine, usually.
