The identd wot I wrote is still fast as anything on 2.4 :)
As you can see from this teeny sample of my ident log, I take just a little
over 1/100th of a second to respond (on average). :)
2001-02-25 16:18:35.714731500 Q [194.75.152.225] - [32907, 25]
2001-02-25 16:18:35.726085500 A [194.75.152.225] - [9a0c62e79c0df893bb96dd74/3a99305b/b0164] for [32907, 25] UID [506]
2001-02-26 09:41:02.535514500 Q [195.92.249.252] - [33363, 21]
2001-02-26 09:41:02.548884500 A [195.92.249.252] - [8c0babd7b8ab6830b7092839/3a9a24ae/8454c] for [33363, 21] UID [500]
By the way, the intention of my ident server was not to be fast, but just to be
a little simpler and less over-engineered than pidentd, and not to give out any
site-specific information (uid's etc). The speed was a bonus.
