I'd be curious to find out if he had a high system load average, or if he felt most of his lag was due to network congestion, or both. <snip>
Again, from one of the /. entries by Bruce :
It's spending 90% of its time in Python. This is no surprise for a Pentium 120, it's time to make a trip to Fry's for a better CPU/motherboard, I guess. The 768K bit-per-second line is not being saturated.
Plus its using Squishdot -- which is pretty pre-alpha and has'nt been optimized at all... I know, I wrote it... There's probably a big bottleneck in the way it's building the list of articles which may/may not account for its slowness... I haven't done any profiling on it, which I probably need to do before I recommend it for production use... but I guess some people like to live on the *_bleeding_* edge ;^) A-little-bit-just-too-Real-world-stress-testedly-yours, Butch butchland@yahoo.com _____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
