I'm on unpatched varnish 2.1.2, compiled with sun studio compiler, configured with the settings you mentioned in your blog post. When the process does crash, there is no info in the syslog about what happened. So what’s your latest status? :)

If you have issues starting Varnish, start Varnish in the foreground via -F argument." It's quite a serious bug, it should *always* be run in foreground.

Coming from the Ubuntu world, I had to do some very basic setup to get a good build environment going on OpenSolaris.

You might also want to check out the patches recently submitted by slink that help improve things with time handling performance on (open)solaris. TIM_mono() is called 4 times per request, with slink's patch it avoids a syscall every time varnish needs access to temporal information. http://varnish.projects.linpro.no/ticket/609 Corrected, thank you for the correction.

Thanks for writing this. Following your notes I was able to get Varnish running under Solaris 10. FYI, the projects file is /etc/project, not /etc/projects. Thanks for writing this.
