Apache Hello World Benchmarks

Joshua Chamas writes "I have been running the Hello World benchmarks for years, and I have finally published the Apache Hello World Benchmarks site based on this data. Most people have a love-hate relationship with benchmark data, but I think its critical information to have whenever choosing what's right for your project. The beauty of these benchmarks is that they are open source, so one can run them easily on their Apache/UNIX system and pry them apart to see what makes them tick!"

    Attention Slashdot subscribers: As you probably know VA Software, the company that runs Slashdot, is in financial trouble. Their stock price has been in the doldrums for months and they will soon be removed from the NASDAQ. We have it on good information that VA's board have now given up hope of saving the company and will declare it bankrupt in mid-August. At that point the company's remaining cash will either go to paying its debts or returned to shareholders, that includes YOUR subscription money.

    Our recommendation: If you are thinking of taking out a subscription to slashdot, don't bother. If you already have a subscription then it may be possible to save some of your money, email CmdrTaco or one of the other site janitors and ask to cancel it. Do this as soon as possible.
