Evilseed does indeed have a website mousecloner.com and it seems a lot of work just for a trojan (his legal disclaimer would cost $1000 for an attorney to draw up), and the fact that the very name of the web site "mousecloner" would be hard to aqquire at this point (almost any combination of good words is taken).

He also says he is Tim Sullivan previous owner of wowhead (which I use every day). If in fact that is the case I would see little reason to doubt his claims as to anything.

I mean outside of the fact it took him longer then expected to release his software is there any particular reason to doubt his word at this point?

Also read his initial post, the simple fact he knows all this information well, why would someone aquire such knowledge just to post a trojan or whatever?


I did some digging into why these intel SSDs provide such a massive performance gain and it is all about the IOPS and seek times. The real strain on a PC is that running multiple wows, symlinked or not, requires a ton of random reads from random files. The more reads that exist, the lower your throughput will be. For example, while 1 read constant may yield you 100mbs, 10 reads will NOT yield you 10mbps per read. Rather, it'll do maybe 1.5mbps per read. The reason for the througput cut is the seek time latency. With my raid0/1 array using 4x x25e SSDs, I'm able to hit over 1000mb/s read *and* write, and can have 10,000 open file handlers reading/writing and still obtain over 400mbs. My wow multiboxing is now insane.
That observation does not appear incorrect on its face, and thats some advanced thinking actually.
