Coming back to car racing, I loves to drive fast, and interested about anything faster. :-) That is why I love ESB performance and to see the product I work on ranked at 1st in performance. I will be driving the UltraESB exactly like how I drive my car to beat all the others, yes it is fun, test me either on the road or on the Linux Servers. ;-)
