I'm just saying that most of the developers I'm talking to on IRC say
this tread is insane, has no content and they are blowing it off
because of that.  A concrete, real benchmark will go a long way
towards changing that.  Until then, you are as good as kill filed.

I don't say this to be mean or nasty.  I'm just saying that people are
sick to death of the arguing without any real facts.
