    This won't help at all. Your server sends your data to clients where it can be (and most likely is: browser cache) stored.

    You seem to be pretty bad at counting.

    According to this page, libjpeg is not guaranteed to be binary compatible between releases.

  13. Re:fdisk on OpenBSD 4.8 Released · · Score: 1, Insightful

    I just think it's ridicolous that I have to compute partition/disklabel sizes in sectors myself while sitting at a computer. I own a computer because it can compute for me not because I want to compute for it.

    I guess lots of people I know who are not so computer-savvy would call you a douche.

    I would just turn off JS for that site. If it becomes unusable by doing so, well, good riddance.

  20. Re:FF4 has some pretty serious memory leaks still, on Firefox 4's JavaScript Now Faster Than Chrome's · · Score: 1

    It's very easy to reproduce these problems: 1. Download the Firefox installer for your platform from mozilla.org. This could be the latest 3.6 release, or the latest 4.0 beta. 2. Install it. Make sure you do not install any sort of plugins or extensions. We want a clean, default Firefox installation. 3. Browse the web for 30 minutes. Visit a variety of sites, including Slashdot, Facebook, and some of the popular news sites.

    I've done that. Several times over the years. But:

    4. Use top or the Task Manager or whatever your system offers to see the memory usage of the Firefox-related processes. Notice that they'll be in the gigabytes.

    didn't happen. Only time was with FF4 b5/b6 memory leak because of a bug in their new audio API. Chrome OTOH happily ocupies several hundred MB RAM after just 3-4 hours of usage.
