I've seen reports of reduced threads by everyone who uses it, but 
without a broader test we won't know for sure it's gone, so definitely 
b15 :D

heh, always fun. He does file extremely good reports from my limited 
experience with him though.

Ya, I'm just worried about the cost of the dynamic rendering to the 
machine hosting, but it's only a cursory worry, nothing substantial or 
anything like that.

Totally. When we were setting up Perian and needed mirrors, Graham and I 
thought that it'd be easy to just use Sourceforge.

Holy crap did that turn out to be the wrong decision. They were serving 
dmgs as .dmg.bz and half the users who downloaded it thought that the 
download was corrupt. I filed an issue with them and we got a response 
from them after we had moved to another mirror and away from sourceforge 
(cachefly to the rescue!). Sourceforge is overly complicated for no good 
reason, the mirrors confuse folks. It's just not worth it.
