However I wish there were some large companies out there using and
relying in pf, who could just decide (right now) to ship Henning two
machines. Not because it is the right thing to do, but because they
will directly benefit, immediately. They could do so completely out
of self-interest.
But perhaps there are no large companies using pf? That's entirely
possible, I suppose.
Supporting requests like Henning's out of the pocket change that our
private user community has is rather crazy; it is a management
headache for us to wait for money, then move it around. Using such
(smallish) monies to keep other project needs under control -- that is
smart.
These performance enhancements will not affect regular private users,
but will be of particular benefit to companies who use our software in
larger installs. Companies should stand up when such requests are
made, or they and their employees should be ashamed of themselves for
not having any vision, at all.
