03/29/2005 01:47 PMBenjamin Cohen, former owner of the iTunes.co.uk domain name, will be
taking Apple to the High Court to try and overturn a ruling from a
domain registry that stated the domain name should be transferred to
Apple.
Apple issued proceedings against Cohen in December through the UK
internet registry Nominet, claiming ownership of the domain should be
transferred to Apple because it holds the iTunes trademark. The
company won a legal battle against Cohen earlier in March as Nominet
claimed that he had made an "abusive registration" and ruled that the
domain name should be transferred to Apple.
Cohen will be applying to the High Court on Tuesday or Wednesday for a
judicial review.
"We feel that the procedure that Nominet utilise to settle disputes is
unfair and biased towards big business at the expense of legitimate
small British companies," Cohen told The Guardian. "It's a matter of
principle now. I paid for it and if Apple had contacted me nicely
without lawyers we would have sold it to them."

Natural Born Killers of PHP
Natural Born Killers of PHP
10/28/2003 11:08 PMRecently I revised Optimizing PHP, an article that I wrote in 2002.
I'm pleased to say that it hasn't aged much. The changes I had to make
include a recommendation to use FastCGI with IIS, adding Turck MMCache
to the opcode cache list, recommending Cache_Lite, replacing foreach
with list/each for large arrays, and the realisation that arrays need
to be passed by reference too.
Then I realized how much more I could have discussed. I started to
think more about performance profiling after discussing APD in a
previous post.
Now there is some logic to the fact that functions with many lines of
code will run slower than ones which are short and brief.
However sometimes it's the shortest code snippet that cause the real
slowdowns. That's because these code snippets call external functions
that hide a lot of complexity behind a deceptively simple and light
exterior. With any of the following natural born killers, one
thoughtless line of code can result in a unbearable x100 times
slowdown:
SQL statements - for example, adding a simple ORDER BY clause to a
query could cause a massive slowdown because all records will have to
be obtained on the server and sorted first before it is sent to the
PHP client.
Regular expressions - because regular expressions work by
back-tracking when a match fails, its common for a regular expression
to be exponentially expensive to compute. The longer the string, the
worse it becomes.
Network calls - the increasing popularity of SOAP and similar
inefficient but easy-to-use protocols open up new vistas of
unscalability for the unwary.
Classic performance tuning techniques used by XDebug and APD give you
a summary of all functions with long execution times. This is useful,
but we need tools to easily pinpoint, measure and tune the overhead of
killers such as SQL statements, regular expressions and RPC calls. I
think that we already have enough Open Source CMS projects out there.
Tuning tools like this are great idea for students and developers with
time to kill, looking for an interesting Open Source project to start.
