They've done tech talks and the like on it, but I'd strongly recommend anyone intending to write software to read this: http://www.sqlite.org/testing.html This topic is mostly section 3.3, but there's a lot to test.

I'm not convinced I like the methodology, but I do like the question. I've done some similar testing of my own to see what the performance impact of using libraries' mechanisms for flushing writes to disk and found I could get pretty decent

If you go to stackoverflow, you'll see tons of people actively recommending new projects start using subversion for various reasons. I have a skewed view of the world, I believe. I use the tools that solve my problems the best and don't

New accounts is ~400 day, new repos is 1,000. I get your point. But I don't think number of web servers out there capable of also being subversion repositories is the greatest metric, either.

It'd be interesting to see that subversion graph vs. a git one. I don't know how to find all git repos on the planet, but github is claiming 1,000 new repositories per day last month: http://github.com/blog/493-github-is-moving-to-rackspa

Sure it's obvious until you have hundreds of millions of nodes that each link to somewhere between 100 and 2,000,000 other nodes that need to be updated when any given node updates (assume around 5,000 nodes are updating every second with a
