Jazz file sharing

The system compresses the file with each method in turn, then compares the results — storing whichever result yielded the most compression. If neither method yields significant compression, the file is simply stored uncompressed. The Jazz server applies the space-saving strategies described above to all versioned files regardless of content type — binary files as well as text files.

But it goes further — applying similar strategies to non-versioned files such as work item attachments, and even certain kinds of non-file content such as build results, process definitions, and team member photos. Because of the nature of the compression algorithms Jazz uses, the amount of compression and space savings you will observe on your own Jazz server depends on the nature of your file content and may be difficult to predict ahead of time. Welcome to the future, where comfort will mean everything, Children of Men worthy angst come to life.

Have I mentioned my drummer friend Florian Arbenz? I really want to more about this Judy Stuart. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your comment data is processed. Share this: Tweet.

People are still going to file share, even though there's a very slim chance they'll get caught. Somebody who downloads a couple of files from time to time using Grokster, or Kazaa, isn't going to get busted. Most filesharers are young people who like to regularly flaunt the law, anyway. When you're eighteen, if somebody says don't do something, you probably end up doing it. This has been true since the dawn of man, its a rite of passage.

Call it the adventurous nature of our youth. When we're young we think we know it all, and what our elders tell us just don't ring true. So if the RIAA, just another group of parents, says, don't fileshare, you'll get busted, what will most kids do? Filesharing does have its hazards, however.

So beware. The filesharing services, Limewire, Grokster, Morpheus, Kazaa, these aren't college kids sitting in their dorm rooms coding like crazy and trying to save the world.

These are commercial enterprises. The advertisements are from major corporations, like Verizon and Citibank. Even though there's a lot of talk about the legality of filesharing, I don't see anybody not advertising there.

Advertisers see numbers, and they flock. I don't mind ads, but what happens to your computer, ah, there's the problem. When you download the version of these programs, you get a lot of additional software put on your computer, some of it attaches itself to your configuration files, to your system folder.

So that when you turn on your computer, this software starts to run. It tracks your web useage, tries to get you to go to certain websites, sell you all manner of useless junk via pop-ups.
