We were upset that our browser only supported HTTP 1.0 and therefore
seemed to perform poorly (even though he recently upgraded to 512KB
ADSL). Fortunately, Microsoft was programming a Java HTTP 1.1 proxy at
this time and he decided to install the release candidate 0.9 on his
(only) computer. Even though the proxy did not yet support compression
or caching, it promised a far better "user experience". While the
download was creeping towards the 100% mark, we wondered, why this proxy
would improve our bad situation, and how much. . . Note that both the
browser and the proxy only allow for a single HTTP session and that only
one server is involved.

Hey ken, can you "un-sticky" this post?
Sorry do you mean split the thread, I merged them originally. Most OPs take the hint not to multi-post so saves time giving warnings, especially when its the first time :).

No actually when I posted that comment, the thread was marked as "sticky" and was at the top. Regardless, it has since then been fixed it seems.
Oops - sorry admins, guess I've blown my Christmas bonus ;)

I've encountered a troublesome inconsistency in the C-language Perl
extension I've written for CPAN (Digest::SHA). The problem involves the
use of a static array within a performance-critical transform function.
When compiling under gcc on my big-endian PowerPC (Mac OS X),
declaring this array as "static" DECREASES the transform throughput by
around 5%. However, declaring it as "static" on gcc/Linux/Intel
INCREASES the throughput by...
