Since we’ve made all these changes, we have been able to scale memcached to handle 200,000 UDP requests per second with an average latency of 173 microseconds. The total throughput achieved is 300,000 UDP requests/s, but the latency at that request rate is too high to be useful in our system. This is an amazing increase from 50,000 UDP requests/s using the stock version of Linux and memcached.

Native Client is an open-source research technology for running x86 native code in web applications, with the goal of maintaining the browser neutrality, OS portability, and safety that people expect from web apps.
Google Native Client. Also see the related Google Code Blog post. Sounds very interesting. Thanks Em for sharing on IRC.

Today, Ubuntu announced the first Intrepid Ibex beta. I gave my Linux workstation an upgrade immediately to give it a try. A few days ago, I had manually installed Flash Player 10 using nspluginwrapper, and wrote a guide about it. I received a suggestion that you can also use an Intrepid Ibex package to install Flash Player 10 on Hardy Heron, which is a great suggestion and a lot easier than my method.
Now I have Intrepid Ibex, and that package is available, installing Flash Player 10 on 64-bit Ubuntu is a snap:
apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
Yup, that’s it. Reload Firefox and you’re done! I must say though, it seems a little less stable than it was in Hardy Heron, but then Intrepid Ibex is still in beta.
Edit: A quick test suggests that Minefield is a bit speedier using Flash Player 10

Edit: I’ve written a followup article tackling Flash Player 10 on Intrepid Ibex.
Edit: I’ve been informed by burty89 that you can visit this page and choose the latest package of Flash Player 10 for Intrepid Ibex 64-bit and install that on your Hardy installation. Thanks Burty!
I was experiencing some screen tearing on video with Flash Player 9, and thought perhaps giving Flash Player 10 a try would help. It didn’t help much, but here’s how you can install Flash Player 10 yourself using nspluginwrapper on 64-bit Ubuntu. I did this on Hardy Heron, but similar steps will probably apply to previous or new distributions. Read the rest of this entry »

Lifehacker: RTM’s iPhone interface won it a design award from Apple, which is no small feat. Can we guess that an actual App Store application is in the works?
Emily Boyd: I’d say that would be a pretty good guess… we’re huge iPhone fans.

Good, I look forward to it, an RTM app for my iPhone would really set things off and make RTM even more useful than it already is. I hope it does offline synchronisation…Please?

The interesting thing about cloud computing is that we’ve redefined cloud computing to include everything that we already do. I can’t think of anything that isn’t cloud computing with all of these announcements. The computer industry is the only industry that is more fashion-driven than women’s fashion. Maybe I’m an idiot, but I have no idea what anyone is talking about. What is it? It’s complete gibberish. It’s insane. When is this idiocy going to stop?
