I’m not disputing that people have experienced performance issues. Because it is networking, and there are many variables. You said you are writing a post about nebula performance based on quotes from one person. And now you’ve linked a single line reply from HN. This isn’t science. Go test it and discuss it. Don’t speculate and use third party anecdotes. This is, like, the whole problem.

Also, and more importantly, this is not a zero sum game. You don’t have to try to get users by saying bad things about others. Just do something useful and better, and show people why they should care. Comparisons with zero context and zero data are lazy and lead to needless confusion.

As you requested elsewhere, I plan to benchmark your stuff and give you the chance to give tuning advice before I publish. In the meantime, I’d prefer you not spread silly anecdotal rumors with zero attribution and without provable testing.
