Laugh as much as you want but to me (and many others) it actually is. I would look at other manufacturers for their hardware, but sadly it's all non-MacOs and I value this operating system above anything else for my needs (work and per

I know how to solve this problem, so I wasn't commenting on his comment, but rather on the fact that none of these tutorials so far solve this problem for new users that they target. Aside from that, I don't think what he proposes

That's exactly what I meant. I know how to do it myself, but then again I'm not the target for these articles, but when I read them with the mindset of someone who is supposed to have a use of them, that's always the big miss

At least in case of FreeBSD, the network saturation isn't an active goal of default kernel settings, hence the link I've pasted. It's especially nice, as it explains a lot of things it proposes so that the blind copy&past

I would assume you're testing that on the stock kernel settings that aren't really prepared for the highest network throughtput. There's a lot that can be done in the kernel sysctl's tuning for saturating the NIC and I&#

They're much more than just a chroot (that's a concept of limiting your process filesystem access), can have their own TCP stack, their own firewall, their resource usage limits and so on. They are much, much closer to Linux conta

Indeed it is, I stand corrected :) However, when I was looking at it, I've skimmed through the top menu (nothing), scrolled down to the footer (noting) and finally clicked the Documentation link (nothing). Apparently the pricing info i

It sounds like a nice product, but sadly it's not exactly why GA is so popular (being a 'nice' product, that is). It is popular, because it's free, relatively easy to implement on any website, requires no self-hosting an

How does that help? Which results are you going to treat with low confidence for second pass and why? Positives? Negatives? Both? If both, then what's the point of first pass anyway?

Quite possibly another thing could be happening: I can see Intel not allowing Apple to directly compare any competitive part if it's not coming from Intel as well, where Apple likes to say 'This is the fastest MacXXX ever, 12345%
