And something like, I think it was the web tier was like 11%. I should have had it up in front of me. 11% more performance by switching to host profiles and allowing them to customize the host. Have you had things like that over the past four years with these either optimizations in specialized computes that have allowed you to even gain more global optimization?

Because a million hosts, like a 10% gain in efficiency or lower power requirements is huge. That's like megawatts of savings.

That's fascinating.

Have you been enabling that through like FPGAs that you allow people to program inside the fleet? Or how does that like, how do you come out of like, hey, we have an ASIC now and it does some specialized computing task for us?

And at some point they have like, here's a chip, go install it for us. And you need, here's a driver for it, right? Like they need to give that to you as a host team.

Yeah, I really want to see an org chart now. I was like, there's so many of these teams that just keep popping up of like, oh yeah, no, we have a team that does that.

And you've been there for a little while now, right?

What are you looking forward to working on in the next year? Are there big projects or big initiatives that you would like to tackle or even things in the open source or like things that you want to give back and make sure other people know about?

That was one of my best claims of fame at Disney+, was I disabled rsyslog. I was like, no, we don't have it. It was just journald. I was like, we're just doing journald now. And it saved us so much just like I-O throughput on the disks and everything. And there was a lot of problems with it, too. Maybe we weren't ready to do that. But I was like, no, we can't ship Disney+, until rsyslog's off.

It was great. It was a great feeling one day where I'm like, I don't need this anymore. I don't need our syslog.
