Journal Journal: Interesting note on IO 12

VA 4450 chokes on 47 inserts per second while a 22XX was able to due 78 last night in testing without issue.

My cheap ass dual proc tyan board can do 112 on IDE drives (I was trying to stress it or the 22xx, I just wanted to see if it was better).

The 4 proc Intel motherboard inside of the 4450 sucks ass for IO.

Journal Journal: Just in case you were curious.... 12

I get asked this question every so often so since I just did the calculation for it I thought I would post it.

There are right around 4.4 million friends of friend and foes of friends relationships. This is out of 89K friend and foe relationships (the record number of second degree relationships is around 16K, with the next 3 being in the 13K range).

Journal Journal: Zaurus Stuff

You know, I like my Zaurus. I have a couple of complaints about it but those are pretty minor and are more application specific (well battery life could be better but lets face facts, nothing is going to beat a palm since it does so little... which translates into it needing little battery life (sure, do away with color, a good processor, and I bet you could do the same)).
I now have my calendar working thanks to the fact that KOrganizer runs on it. Wish Kmail and the addressbook did too.
