Simian (Similarity Analyser) identifies duplication in Java, C#, C, C++, COBOL, Ruby, JSP, ASP, HTML, XML, Visual Basic, Groovy source code and even plain text files. In fact, simian can be used on any human readable files such as ini files, deployment descriptors, you name it.
I need to set-up a new 401k for my new consulting job. Looking into going through Vanguard directly. E-mail me if you have better suggestions.
I am currently reading Eat This Book by Eugene Peterson. My coworker Matt Moran mentioned he has been listening and reading Jeff Vanderstildt’s stuff lately, and I have never heard of Jeff. Matt gave me this link to check out.

The author, Yin Zhu, works on the F# Optimization Domain Specific Language.
The performance of receive side TCP processing has traditionally been dominated by the cost of the ‘per-byte’ operations, such as data copying and checksumming. We show that architectural trends in modern processors, in particular aggressive prefetching, have resulted in a fun- damental shift in the relative overheads of per-byte and per-packet operations in TCP receive processing, making per-packet operations the dominant source of overhead.
Motivated by this architectural trend, we present two optimizations, receive aggregation and acknowledgment offload, that improve the receive side TCP performance by reducing the number of packets that need to be pro- cessed by the TCP/IP stack. Our optimizations are sim- ilar in spirit to the use of TCP Segment Offload (TSO) for improving transmit side performance, but without need for hardware support. With these optimizations, we demonstrate performance improvements of 45-67% for receive processing in native Linux, and of 86% for re- ceive processing in a Linux guest operating system run- ning on Xen.
Title is a bit of flame bait. The author’s real point is that it is not friendly toward small requests if the receiver is using Delayed ACKs.
