When we decided to put up an open source tool that helps measure runtime platform [un]responsiveness, we found that the hardest things to explain about such a tool is just why it is actually needed. Most people think they already know how the underlying platform behaves, and expect the results to be uninteresting. The basic assumption we seem to have about the platforms we run on is that the platform itself is fairly consistent in it's key responsiveness behavior.

Now that we've actually announced our new Zing platform, I've been running around the world talking about it. By the end of next week I would have visited San Francisco, Boston, Warsaw, Moscow, Paris, and London. Jetlagged at 2:30am in Warsaw, I finally succumbed to the world of blogging, and decided that if I can't sleep, my meandering thoughts may as well be imposed on the rest of the world.
