Following can improve performace:
Remove the Update Manager GUI, since at this time it does nothing in OpenSolaris (removes the update manager process).
# pkgrm SUNWupdatemgrr SUNWupdatemgruRemove the Basic Registration Application (improve the startup of JDS/GNOME).
# svcadm disable svc:/system/basicreg:defaultFollowing cleans the system up:
# pkgrm SUNWbrgr SUNWbrg
Remove PPP.
# pkgrm SUNWpppdt SUNWpppdu SUNWpppd SUNWpppdr SUNWpppgRemove the UUCP Utilities.
# svcadm disable svc:/network/uucp:default
# pkgrm SUNWbnur SUNWbnuu

Always good to remove a little bit of cruft... :)
How the removal of unused package can improve performance?
Leon, you are right about some of the packages, but removing the Update Manager & basic Registration does improve the perfmance on the JDS interface, since it stops a couple of service. Anyway and thanks I will slight chage my wording in the blog.
Thank you, Andrew. I like your blog!
Interesting Blog, you should post more often though :) Tech blogs are always good, especially Solaris ones (don't get to do much sysadmin myself now as I've shuffled back into Networks :p)
