and that is why i consider such developers as idiots if someone DOES NOT KNOW how to optimize code he has to learn it and should not call himself a programmer before IMHO developers should be forced to test their crap on a older machine with 17" display as also web-developers should work on servers with mod_bw and 128kbit bandwidth our machines would be 2-5 times faster these days.......... and yes having a 4 GHz CPU 3 times faster is noticeable
