Well, this is a proposal, not a book on performance or design. And we want to agree on the goals, and on using a smaller core that takes into account what we learned so far about performance - and you'll find plenty of refereneces on the archives about this subject. > What I'm definitely not doing it taking your word > for it.

Well, sorry for the question, now reading it seems a bit brutal. What I meant is that most of your comments are pretty generic. There are many compromises that we'll have to do - for performance, simplicty, community, flexibility and so on. It's obvious we don't know the result before doing it. I think coyote is a reasonable starting point for 5.0, it'll allow most of the present interfaces to remain supported and backward compatible and avoid waste of time fixing what works today ( i.e. most of the existing modules ).
