fossil deadlock
I can easily get fossil to deadlock. It would be great if anyone with fossil internals expertise could comment.
Why should I boot Plan 9, when I know I can't run a browser, and I already have p9p?
+9p (the network filesystem plan9 and inferno are using) is horribly slow. It only works on fast no-latency LANs. Don't even think about using it on any link with more than 20ms latency.
+The (9P) protocol has also other glaring mis-features -- it lacks the ability of moving files -- if you want to move a big file on a remote machine from one directory to another, you'll have to copy it back and forth, all the way. This is incredibly dumb.
+I doubt plan9 will ever get into a usable system. Everything inside is like high-brow silliness, second-system syndrome and stupid vulnerabilities you only meet with in historic code from 30 years ago.
+As to the ideas inspired by plan9 in modern unix systems, they quickly became just encumbering legacy crap -- e.g. the /proc system in linux.

The goal should be a Plan 9 "distro" that runs natively on AMD-64, and can open a web-browser.
I was using "startx" in the figurative sense.
