[Rabbit-dev] ad blocking

[Ping ni]

another question, what do you guys think the efficiency about invoking
GraphMagics for processing picture？ is it good? i have a full test
using load runner tools for it, it looks bad. Concurrency only can
reach 267 numbers. But if i switch off the gm module and using java
module for pic compression, it got a good score concurrency about 600
in 24 hours periods.

but cpu and memory almost reach its limits. there is no extra system
resources left. how to limit the cpu and memory resources for the pic
processing module?

another about the cache, is there no other compared solution like
NCache another open source project?

Thanks
-NP
