The context was a TCP connection feeding a Versatec plotter. (Remember them?) Somebody was making a banner for his daughters volleyball team. He turned the text sideways and set the font size to 3 feet tall. It took the printer a long time to process a few characters of text. Some timer didn't handle that case. The fix was only one line. ------ Does anybody have a checklist of things like that to test? -- These are my opinions.
