[Betwixt] benchmarks [WAS Re: [VOTE] move Betwixt into commons proper (was Re: Betwixt &MethodUpdaters)]

hi Ivelin

a good answer to the comparison FAQ (rather than just the tied old 'of 
course our one is better 'cos we created it!') would be very useful.

fancy volunteering?

it'd be cool to have the benchmark and comparison from someone who has a 
user perspective (rather than a betwixt developer).

Re: [Betwixt] benchmarks [WAS Re: [VOTE] move Betwixt into commons proper (was Re: Betwixt &MethodUpdaters)]

Posted by Martin van den Bemt <ml...@mvdb.net>.
I don't like to have a direct comparison. 
The explanation of that statement is pretty simple :
You are comparing different things and preformance is pretty relative to
the use case and how well betwixt fits into the goal to be achieved.

I (normally) make a decision based on this fact. So to keep people like
me out of trouble, I suggest the following :)

Make a nice simple list with things you can do with it.
Add for every use case a small example, which allows you to see pretty
quick if it is usable for you scenario
If you already know it is not useable for a certain scneario, add it to
the "It Cannot" list and ask people to make it or mention tools that can
do the job for you (at least if we know of them). 

In short : 
I prefer to say what we can do, instead of what others cannot. 

Mvgr,
Martin

PS Will be back on sunday..
