#185189 - Speed, quality, cost Responding to: ???'s previous message |
It's the old project management dilemma - the powers that be want it cheap, they want it fast and they want it good. Now decide which two do you really want!
Most software bloat comes about when quality (i.e. speed and resource efficiency) are sacrificed for development speed. Unresponsive applications can have faster hardware thrown at them (i.e. trade off against cost) but not many products justify a lot of effort being thrown at an attack on software bloat. This is particularly relevant when applications or technology are evolving rapidly, where you have to run very fast just to stand still. |
