Please refrain from continuing to message the list on this topic. I will not do so either, provided you stop sending things like 'David is wrong, and his ideas should never be considered' to the list. It is entirely childish, and I am sure people are sick of seeing this sort of garbage in the list.
My only response to this latest attack is that Varnish is open source software. I can and will publish a how-to on using hashing in the manner that I have described. There is nothing that you can do to stop it, and I am sure people will take advantage of it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Poul-Henning Kamp" <[email protected]> To: "David Helkowski" <[email protected]> Cc: "Jonathan DeMello" <[email protected]>, [email protected], "Per Buer" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, March 8, 2011 5:36:18 PM Subject: Re: Lots of configs In message <[email protected]>, David Helkowski writes: >On 3/8/2011 9:53 AM, Poul-Henning Kamp wrote: >> In message<[email protected]>, >> Jona >My anger was due primarily to the statement "if you got to deploy a >whole bunch of scary inline C that will seriously intimidate the >summer intern and makes all the other fear the config it's just not >worth it." > >The contents of that private email essentially boiled to me saying, in >many more words: >"not everyone is as stupid as you". Well, to put it plainly and simply: In the context of the Varnish project, viewed through the prism that is our project philosphy, Per is Right and you are Wrong. Inline C is the last resort, it is there because there needs to be a last resort, but optimizations like the one you propose does not belong *anywhere* inline C or not.
