[JBoss-dev] PHP problems

2003-01-09 Thread marc fleury
OK so we are really in a bind here.  The script kiddy code may be
functional, this lack of caching is really killing us.  The site is
pegged at 100 with dips at 50% on occasion but all in all the profile
looks pretty bad.  The Java code was 3 times faster.  I feel good on one
hand because this is yet another point in the "cache is king" category
but it is also horrible scalability.  It also makes the website next to
un-usable since the response time is so bad. 

Next time I hear some ignorant bozo tell me apache is fast and c is fast
and java is slow I take my baseball bat and smash his head in.  I am
tired of the rampant ignorance even among the geeks.  It is just amusing
at this point. We need to port the functionality we use in the website
one to one with EJB's backing it up and offering some caching so we can
multiply the speed by 10 and go back to our usual 10% CPU utilization. 

JNUKE will be a killer project.

Marc,

  Don't forget that hardware is cheap compared to man-hours.  If you're writing 
tissue-paper code (write once, never modify, throw away when broken), "script kiddie" 
languages are great. If not, be prepared to eat it in the long run on man hours / 
maintennance.  I think that the use of the tissue-paper "methodology" flies in the 
face of OSS.  Why bother to open-source your IP if nobody will ever read it and you're 
just going to throw it away anyway?  I'm glad to hear that this is a stopgap solution.

  BTW, thanks for providing a real-world case to justify my PHP allergy :)

  - Matt

right interestingly enough we might have to upgrade the machine just to
get decent response times on the forums (where most of the database
access is done).  The notion of caching is lost on script kiddies.

Never again will I tolerate a discussion on C vs Java or Apache vs JBoss
or EJB vs direct JDBC.  

I am laughing my head off today, this computing thing is easy

And remember that eating used tissue-paper is never a good thing.

LOL yeah.  

That being said I think the approach is not bad, you know me.  Bad code
that works that is great! I wish we did more of that in java in general
too much "MVC" too much "model 2" too much "separation of concerns" too
much wanking if you ask me. Same for JBoss sometimes.   Keep it simple
and get it working.  Good for the kiddies.  There is an equilibrium
between the mess that results and the rigid approach most java purist
take.  If we can strike that balance with nukes on jboss
