    The thing is, the raw perfcounters interface isn't going to be useful as
    is. And I have seen where things go when you split them up. So when I get
    the choice, I'll go down the road of unproven failure, in the hope that it
    will be successful, rather than doing the same mistake once more.

    "Insanity: doing the same thing over and over, expecting to get
    different results."

    And I'm not insane.

    Anyway, feel free to disagree. I just don't care.
