it can still saturate a 1gb outbound link, so who cares?

by quasimojo 18y ago
pointless discussion. apache2 can saturate the typical outbound connection for static files. you can't push any more data than that. this is why people gave up on the linux kernel http daemon so long ago...its pointless. in any case your st

when you are rich, recessions are just a time to get assets on sale. why pay top dollar to acquire a startup when you can get them for 80% off in six months? times like this are gravy for companies like apple and google, they have more than
