Flattery will get you nowhere ;-)
Especially as you seem to have conceeded Alaric's point. I'm sure you
remember that our big problem benchmarking our super-spiffy high-
performance XML-munging network intermediary was the fact that we
didn't have enough link capacity and weren't in a position to switch
our infrastructure over to gigabit ethernet. A significant reduction in
message size _without_ the overhead of decompression and recompression
would have been a big win.
<plug>Incidentally if anyone in the UK or nearby _does_ need someone to
design/build/advise on anything like the above, please mail me offlist
... I'm available</plug>
Cheers,
Miles
