Thanks Alex, point taken. I would love nothing more than to help with
the redesign for the challenge and experience. I think FOP is a great
project that the world needs yesterday. Unfortunately my company already
has too much work for me and my clone, and there's no money in the
budget for a third clone at this time. I'm sure you hear this sob story
all the time.

As far as paying some third-party to address performance concerns, do
you think that would make sense before the redesign is completed?

thx,
-Matt
