Yes, Magento is slow and this because of the way the code is written, extreme object oriented. Stackoverflow say “It is written in an Enterprise Java idiom” and there are right.

  • Debian Clusters – This site is a series of step-by-step tutorials for anyone interested in building a Debian cluster. It is geared particularly towards those interested in a Debian cluster for education or research purposes. This site is being written alongside the construction of a real Debian cluster at my institute, starting from the ground (basic networking, DHCP, DNS, authentication) up through installation a queue/scheduler and scientific software.

    However, these tutorials and guides take some assumptions about users for granted, including basic Linux and Debian knowledge (see the Basic Linux Skills page for clarification and pointers to resources). This is not meant as an introduction to Debian or on how to cluster in general – thankfully, there are plenty of helpful tutorials and guides already in existence on those topics. A basic understanding of Debian and cluster technology will aid in following the tutorials.

  • Mobile-OTP: Strong Two-Factor Authentication with Mobile Phones – Mobile One Time Passwords (Mobile-OTP)
    strong, two-factor authentication with mobile phones

    Using static passwords for authentication, as it is commonly done, has quite a few security drawbacks: passwords can be guessed, forgotten, written down and stolen, eavesdropped or deliberately being told to other people.
    A better, more secure way of authentication is the so called "two-factor" or "strong authentication" based on one time passwords. Instead of authenticating with a simple password, each user carries a device ("token") to generate passwords that are valid only one time.

  • Open Monitoring Distribution – Wiki – OMD – Welcome to OMD – the Open Monitoring Distribution. OMD implements a completely new concept of how to install, maintain and update a monitoring system built on Nagios.

    OMD avoids the tedious work of manually compiling and integrating Nagios addons while at the same time avoiding the problems of pre-packaged installations coming with your Linux distribution, which are most times outdated and provide no regular updates.

    OMD bundles Nagios together with many important addons and can easily be installed on every major Linux distribution. We provide prebuilt packages for all enterprise Linux distributions and also for some other, such as Ubuntu 11.04.
