You can of course be super smart at your job and know a TON, but when you start acting cocky and like you know everything it usually doesn't end well.
I followed option A in my career. I quit, went back to school to finish my degree and worked part time as a contractor for enough money to maintain my mortgage while in school.
Anyway, it is very important to learn to work closely with a team. It is also VERY important that you work with people that are SMARTER than you. IMHO, this is the best way to get proper mentor-ship and motivation to learn. I personally try to surround myself with people that are smarter than me.
Once you think that you know "everything" or that you're the smartest person in the room, it's time to change jobs. Because:
A) People won't like working with you
B) You'll stop learning new things since you already know everything.

Imagine this type of stack being used in an embedded system. I've worked on embedded projects that achieved high throughput but in most cases there were FPGAs and DSPs doing a lot work to help. Userspace-to-Kernel context switch delays have always been a latency issue with any Embedded Linux system I've worked on.
Arrakis looks like one would be able to achieve high performance without the need for FPGA and or DSP (depending on the use case of course).
Side note: Cool, I noticed they're using lwip from Adam Dunkels. He's an amazing programmer.
I could see a matrix like this being a great addon to remote job sites. Those of you who have created a work-remote job site and are competing to weworkremotely, etc... I would think that this would bring you a lot more traffic.
I should take another look at it.
It seems like 2 of the main reasons Perforce works better with binary files is that when you sync, you only get the version you're requesting, thus resulting in faster downloads and there's an option to disable compression.
According to their website: http://www.perforce.com/perforce/doc.current/manuals/p4guide... Binary files are stored compressed as well. (I assume that there's an option to disable this)
Thanks for the response and information.
I'm not trying to start a flame war, I'm seriously curious.
I'm currently having to use Accurev in an enterprise environment, but I haven't run into anything that Accurev offers that can't be accomplished with git in a better and faster way. But then again, that's just my opinion :-)
