"At Cloud9, more often than not we predicted our bottlenecks wrong. Dead wrong."
I'd be a millionaire if I made a nickel every time someone guessed at a bottleneck rather than looked. If I wanted to expand my portfolio, I would add a nickel for every time this is said: 'we had our programmers working for 6months to improve performance' when performance issues could have been solved with a $10k SSD array in a week.
