1. Sorry you thought a comparison in which your program doesn't come out on top is a flame. It wasn't. Don't know what's unfair about comparing out of the box, default install performance of two systems.

2. Yes, I sent it, sorry you didn't receive it.

3. I did a standard apt-get install for stunnel on the Ubuntu Oneric system.

4. Sigh. I'm not going to comment on that one.

5. Really don't know where you would get this idea. Also don't understand why you get so upset. As I said, I was more than happy to discuss this with you ahead of time. Let me try to explain this again: I suggested that most real-world data is already compressed, thus the benefits you could derive by doing compression on the wire are lessened to the point where compression won't get you anything. For any compressable data, compressing it before sending is great and beneficial and I never stated otherwise.

Did you really want to discuss your results "ahead of time"? You could easily do it before publishing them. My email address is in the manual of stunnel.

I could argue whether an old Ubuntu package is "out of the box" stunnel, or whether sending 20mbit stream of compressed video is really the most common use of stunnel...
