A while back I wrote about how I had discoveredthat ZFS could wind up doing excessive readahead when faced with manystreams of sequential read IO and wind up throwing 90% to 95% ofthe IO that it had done (with terrible consequences for applicationperformance). It's time for an update on that situation.

First, for various reasons we wound up moving to Solaris server machineswith 8 GB of memory (SunFire X2200s instead of X2100s)

On top of SSL's general issue there is apractical problem with how SSL information is presented in browsers, onethat makes it very difficult for anyone except very technical people toactually meaningfully verify who a SSL certificate is issued to.

The issue is simple: browsers normally only show you the name of theorganization that the SSL certificate is issued to. But organizationnames are not unique , especially not across the entire world, whichmeans that just the organization name alone tells people less than theythink it does.
