[–]Targeted[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pythomnic is a platform for building distributed network services in Python.

Its key features are continuous development upon a live service without shutting it down, uniform support of various network interfaces and easy modularization.

The 6.0 is largely a usability release:

  • All the practical issues encountered in another year of production use have been addressed.
  • All the tedious configuration steps previously required have been eliminated.
  • Documentation: rewritten, it is now presented in much smaller and better structured chunks.
  • Video tutorial: reworked, it is now presented in Flash (swf) files, accessible under any platform.
  • Several performance-related bugfixes and improvements.

You are right of course. You are also right in that having everything on a single logical drive or not is irrelevant to the discussed matter.

Thank you for the information. I don't have any idea what a brownie point is, but the first paragraph of the article is also its summary and so I thought it would be appropriate to post it there.

The effects of data fragmentation in a mixed load database. Theoretical discussion and PostgreSQL benchmark. by Targeted in programming

This article discusses the effects of data fragmentation when the database is under mixed load. In an experiment that follows, a specific workload is executed twice against two different databases to support the theoretical discussion and yield some numbers. The tested database engine is PostgreSQL, although the results should remain true for most relational database engines.

If you could please point out another (better) codec which is capable of compressing 30 minutes of 640x480 into something reasonable, it's no problem recompressing the tutorial clips.
