10:16 PM - Memory allocation speedup

I toyed with the malloc flags today on my local file server and the production webserver. Both now don't zero out memory and use smaller cache sizes. Its a little risky if the code is written poorly, but it is a huge speed increase. Even caryn noticed. Dovecot is much faster in particular. I also tried to write some new JJ server code today. I somewhat gave up on that for now. I'll just port to maverick as much as i can and work on getting all the views in XSL/XML.
