So far I've actually installed and gotten my application running with Scyld. I have most of the other systems on CD. I was about to try Rocks. But to try them all is going to take me a long time....

I wonder whether anyone has recently done a comparison of these (or other) systems? (I also know of  Cplant and IBM's CSK.) I found an NHSE article from 1996, but that's ancient history.
