Wanted to just post a quick thanks to George and the other developer(s)
of this product. Couple teething problems last night, and we have to plan the upgrade for a couple
live boxes, but it worked *quite* well - the tests I did so far showed 10-20%
improvement on the low end and up to 200% increase.
Admittedly it's 'just' apachebench 'blast' testing, but going to 34 pps to
104pps is quite remarkable.
Thanks guys. :)
