No doubt - excellent job, C* folks! Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be bitter but I'm genuinely curious how much of that improvement can be attributed to JVM (?). And, also, how much of an "optimization reserve" C* itself still has (and will pull off one day)?

That's a strong accusation. Do you have a reference to any 'unpaid benchmarks', so we can judge ourselves?
The concentration of buzzwords caused my sensor to cross the redline. Can you please explain, in plain English, what it is?
What's wrong with rm -rf /Path/To/Application?
I always missed a good web framework in C++. I tried Wt, but didn't like its 'desktop app philosophy', so I dreamed of creating one.
Why I didn't do that? Because web framework must be feature rich. Rendering templates and maintaining sessions is no longer fun; today people expect the frameworks to solve their countless high-level problems, such as Paypal integration, i18n, currency manipulations, etc. Needless to mention that the code must be rock solid and well documented.
What's my point? I appreciate your effort, but I'm afraid you need some greater powers to be involved in development of features. Keeping fingers crossed for this to happen!
Thanks for this link. It deserves a separate thread!
