Firebird Extensions and Opera (Dec 08 2003 08:50 GMT) - I have been aware of EditCSS since September and Simon's Collaborative Redesign of his weblog has been a gentle reminder of what EditCSS can do but I never did get around to installing and playing with it until this weekend when I finally got around to upgrading to Firebird 0.7 and I picked up a few extensions along the way from Texturizer. If anyone wonders why I leave browser upgrading until late, it is because I have got into the habit of clean installing my browsers and for me this involves uninstalling the browsers, wiping the "Program Files" folder clean and then removing the "Application Data" folder from each of my accounts (the browser recreates the settings), and finally wiping the Registry Keys if I can locate them (I haven't clean installed Opera since version 7.20 due to laziness on my part). I settled on EditCSS, Live HTTP Headers and the Web Developer Tools because I felt that those were the tools I needed and now I have two great browsers to play with; |

Tomcat 5 - as nice as Tomcat 4, but JRockit 8 is nice (Dec 08 2003 08:46 GMT) - Ooops. Turns out that it wasn't Tomcat 5 that provided the 15-20ms/page performance. Instead, it was the JRockit 8 JVM that did the trick. I got the same performance with Tomcat 4, but switching to Sun JVM /w server settings increased the rendering time to about 40ms/page. Oh well. |
