both ie7 and ie8 have massive quirks in handling <pre> blocks with overflow:auto; and a max-height: set. Choose either mode, a loser is you.

rt @dansdata truly uninspired balloon art http://bit.ly/gpcyK

r @dougmartin well, we do 50+ queries per page on so.com and we serve 700k pageviews/day on 2 servers. ~40% CPU usage web, ~10% db.

r @drarok is Ruby perf really worse than PHP? If so that is just depressing. @rexm yeah, but 5 cheap boxes offers redundancy, too..

on the other hand, you can build an entire server for the cost of one license of Windows Server 2008 Standard. So there is .. that.

PHP performance is frickin' *abysmal*. I am basing this on my experience with OpenX (on Linux) and WordPress (on win64).

I'm sorry, but this is a f**king lie. PHP. IS. ALWAYS. THE. BOTTLENECK. My server farms, let me show you them! http://is.gd/B15X
