Ok, you're right, we don't know what's involved here. It might be a site on an
Intranet, where speed wouldn't matter as much. And don't get me wrong - Tim's no
dimbo. He was one of the peeps that developed the original SourceForge site.
He's a clever guy, he's just not one of my favourite PHP bunnies, because he's
about as opinionated as Cork's favourite DJ, Neil Prendeville. So I tend to take
Tim's comments with a pillar of salt.
