I restarted my Gopher and Gemini servers about 25 hours ago to ensure they're both running
the new optimized code,
so now let's check some results:
Gopher/Gemini server stats
| service | CPU utilization | requests | bytes |
|---|
| gopher | 2:42 | 935 | 1186591 |
| gemini | 8:58 | 36394 | 249020812 |
That's more like it.
The gopher server,
running over plain TCP and getting about 1/40th the requests,
is finally accumulating less CPU time than Gemini
(and the only reason it's not even less is my gopher server has to deal with wraping Unicode text).
I also find it amusing that Gemini,
a protocol that has only been around for five years,
is way more popular than gopher,
a protocol that's been around for thirty-three years.
I guess Gemini being the new shiny is the reason.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
