well, stability is a prerequisite to beeing useful, right :) and kind of a side product from correctnes too... performance is definately a goal as well, just not the primary one. Of course we do not accept absymal performance. We do trade a 1% performance loss for substantial inprovements in security. Isn't decent performance another prerequisite for usabilaty? :) -- BS Web Services, http://www.bsws.de/ OpenBSD-based Webhosting, Mail Services, Managed Servers, ...
