I feel you. I wish there was a better way. However, the application is currently using only 7MB or RAM and 0% CPU, according to the activity monitor (MBA ~ 2012). A small price to pay if reducing distractions is important to you.

It's refreshing to get the perspective of why someone would buy an app or not, from someone that doesn't write software for a living. I think it's all too easy to lose perspective. I wish there were more articles like this one.

It's a big step forward. The games are getting better but they really need a knockout game to push the linux platform forward, something like Borderlands. Something epic. Artsy/Indie games only go so far. Still, happy things are moving forward.

spyder is correct, the x264 graph was mislabeled. I've updated the label. It should have read "Frames per Second" not "Seconds". However, the mp3 and flac graphs are correctly labeled. DigitalOcean still outperforms Linode on mp3 and flac, but that's probably (guessing) because the processer are not waiting for the disk and the x264 encoding is using multiple cores where mp3 and flac encoding is only using one core.
