The current performance is good enough to see them enter the system in the Blog Top 5, now called the Blog Top 6.
Welcome Findory.

GrabPERF: Sponsorship Logos Up, Sponsors Roll In
If you are a user of GrabPERF you have noticed a few changes.
Thanks to the sponsors we have so far:
There are a couple of more in the pipeline, and I look forward to working with all of the sponsors.
On this blog and the GrabPERF site, you will see the icon. If you want to support the developer, there are a few items there that will bring a smile to my face! š
Introverts Everywhere
Seems that us Introverts are busting out everywhere.
Jonathan Rauch hits for six with this article.
I work at a company run by Extroverts, who, without a second thought, promote the Extroverts and marginalize the Introverts.
The thing is that in my company, outside of sales, the company is dominated by Introverts. In fact, because it is a technology company, the Introverts are really the ones who have the power.
And the Extroverts wonder why the Introverts DESPISE the open plan office — no cubes, no offices.
Where are the companies run by Introverts, for Introverts?
The Introvert Advantage
Lifehack.org lists the top ten reasons to being an Introvert. As an INTJ, I can relate to these.
10) Work Well With Others, Especially In One-to-One Relationships
9) Maintain Long-Term Friendships
8) Flexible
7) Independent
6) Strong Ability To Concentrate
5) Self-Reflective
4) Responsible
3) Creative, Out-of-the-Box thinking
2) Analytical Skills That Integrate Complexity
1) Studious and Smart
Looks like I need to buy The Introvert Advantage.

Opera: Free Browser, Web Site Issues?
Opera, my #2 browser choice is now free. Go get it!
Now, Netcraft reports that the site is slowing down as a result. I am also measuring it using GrabPERF

Now, if they turned on compression and had some explicit cache-control information, they might not be doing to badly.
