7,523 | null | comment | BrandonM | 1,175,239,615 | That's true, but what was actually measured was the mean time to serve the entire request. I think in nearly any usage pattern, this would be the data point that you would be most concerned with.

7,532 | null | comment | ced | 1,175,245,382 | I think that it's unrealistic to build a startup around an unsolved fundamentally hard problem. Can anyone think of a counter-example that succeeded? Typically, the problem is solved first, and then the startup is built to implement the solution.<p>Solving hard problems depends too much on creativity and research. I'm ... | null | 7,234 | null | [

7,521 | null | comment | xyzzy | 1,175,238,980 | I wonder to what extent this is a statistical artifact
rather than a genuine improvement. For example, if you
measure performance as the mean time to serve each kilobyte,
then the proposed scheduler does not increase performance. | null | 7,518 | null | [

Actually, its very easy to argue. <p>You really haven't given a reason at all... only ad hominem.
