no surprise there if you think about what architectures are pretty
much forced on massive ecommerce sites these days.

but i doubt it would have very high priority if the vendor also has
bugs affecting the site's customers trying to place orders.  and
what vendor doesn't?  heck, we're approaching the time of year that
major ecommerce sites have to appeal to very high powers to even
move a wire.
