This is just sad. Linus was a driving force. His comments were often acerbic but always fair.

Uhh, that one is very fair.

Two cross-ring context-switches per byte (!!!), is insanely idiotic at best; any BSCS program worth half its salt will teach you why; and one would certainly hope that a developer of a central/core userspace program would be far more knowledgeable than someone straight out of a BSCS program.

According to Linus himself his comments often became personal.. He's a smart guy I am sure he's given this a lot of thought.
