I wonder what Joyent and/or @bcantrill would say about that? It'd be super-cool to be able to run nix deployments in a Triton (instance|container|whateveritis)!
Yeah, Nix on SmartOS would be awesome. With the right filesystem jiggery, the nix store could be shared across zones. That would make the whole system faster and more efficient. Also, specifying a Manta job via next would be amazing.
I've brought it up a few times with Joyent folk, but they haven't looked at it seriously. I think they're so spooked by Docker that they can't pay attention to anything else.
