I think you've confused "peak" with "optimal."
Peak = best possible output
Optimal = most satisfactory
You can tune an engine to run within optimal specs. But if you run it at peak nonstop...
Metrics. Excellent, I hate when bosses use the Imperial system.
All jokes aside: If you care about your job in this economic climate, I suggest you do what your 2 other teammates are doing - picking through the stats that make YOU look the best. The company isn't going to look out for you. IT is an expense to be cut, remember. Boosts the temporary bottom line, promotes "growth" in this fiscal quarter, gets the investors going so the CEO can shuffle another fold into his golden parachute. If non-important metrics are selected that sacrifice your job, it's a brief victory lap straight into the unemployment line.
We can't answer your question, though. In the end, I recommend you watch a clip from "Office Space" - wherein the Bobs interview the employees:
Bob: "So tell me, what is it, exactly, that you do here?"
If you can't answer that question, you probably should be job hunting already. Or should have kept a copy of the job posting from when you applied.
What would you like to see slowed down to such a degree?
Hint: It involves a trampoline, or maybe a wet tshirt...
I GET IT!
Not true at all. If Apple makes a screen that makes their device unusable to me, I will a.) not buy it and b.) move to another device that IS usable. Why do you start out presuming that most people inconvenience themselves by using Apple products? Let the market speak for itself. If I find the device unwieldy, I'll skip it and buy one that isn't. Presuming I even need to replace this sucker anytime soon.
I previously owned a Droid X, hence my reference to the disadvantage of a screen the size of a toaster.
I like my handheld portable devices to be handheld. I'm a 6' guy with fairly large hands, great for guitar, bass, and piano. I also have good eyesight, so I don't need a large screen, just high pixel density.
It'd be entertaining to see an iPhone "Pro" with a bigger screen, and an iPhone "Mini" that's usable.
I like a phone I can use with one hand easily. This whole post was typed with my right hand only, on my iPhone 4.
Fast, cheap, good: pick two.
