Amusing myself with profilers the last few days, with moderate
success. This was probably a waste of time; I don’t think IPC is
likely to be a bottleneck or performance issue for the desktop as a
whole. (Despite the occasional Slashdot kid speculating that stuff is
slow “because of CORBA” or “because of X” as if anything that opens a
UNIX domain socket is automatically to blame for all performance
issues…) But, it was a good way to procrastinate the more useful
stuff I should be doing. And I found a few real bugs while I was
fooling with the code.
