I'm not a fan or a hater, I didn't even know who this person was until this thread. Does the change deserve a blog post or wild claims like "llama.cpp is 100x faster and uses half the memory!"? No. The original PR looks like a decent addition but the blog posts reads as incredibly narcissistic (i.e. lots of language like "We spent several weeks volunteering" and "our project") uh whatever. It also breaks a backwards compatibility when there's no technical reason it couldn't have been optional or put behind a feature flag, plus a ton of condescending language in the PR. Not really the kind of work I'd be proud of or would be advertising in a blog post. |

The claim that it uses half the memory was probably a honest mistake. The ensuing disappointment that it did not in fact halve memory usage and drama attracted trolls and white knights and is icky. The discussion around nmap I suppose is subtle and when emotion abounds can no longer be had. :/
