Announcements March 2019

[Josiah Carlson]

Hello Readers,

Late again, posting on April 1, though this is not a post intended to fool anyone, as everything is serious.

Announcements:

• Pure OpenSSL 1.1.1b can be chosen at compile time vs. OpenSSL + s2n, benchmarks planned
  
• The previously mentioned SCaLE 17x talk: https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/17x/presentations/eliminating-redis-snapshot-memory-overhead
• Is available to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvrQhp4bba8#t=12712
• Slides available: https://www.slideshare.net/secret/sLTnWqcPV7G0HK
• A write-up of the talk in blog form is planned
• More benchmarks, better benchmarks, and better graphs for benefits of ^^^ and other existing work planned
  
• We hit all of our testing / requirements checkboxes for beta hosting, and this is planned
• Going to open up this list to the public, and will just leave a "rules" posting
  

On the personal side, I discovered the cause of prolonged dizziness and inability to work: funked up C1/C2 vertebrae (I saved my lime tree, it was falling down in the heavy southern California rains this season). PT is helping, can only do 2-4 hours of work/day before the headaches / dizziness gets me. I should get better with time, work, and rest.

Since I'm no longer able to sit at a computer and be effective for 12+ hours a day, all planned work is going to be done in some arbitrary order, based on what I think I can get done, given actual physical limitations, priorities, etc.

Take care,

Dr. Josiah Carlson, Ph.D.
