You mentioned performance a few times in that lovely thread when it got shot down, I believe in the context of metadata generation: "Performance hit" (when discussing an alternative) [1] "The GLEP is not about performance, but any solution that forces the introduction of a slowdown of more than, say, 20%, isn't viable." [2] "It's several more directory reads. This is a measurable performance hit" [3] Are you now saying performance doesn't matter? > , you are even more sadly mistaken than usual My how the insults fly.. must be a new academic year. > , and I > suggest you lay off the GLEP 55 bashing until you've bothered to read > it. > Yeah cos obviously I never read it when it was last discussed. Way to go with unfounded, clearly absurd, assertions.
