Merry Christmas

To the tune of “Let It Snow”

Well, the response of the app is frightful,
and users are getting spiteful.
They claim the database is slow,
“Make it go”, “Make it go”, “Make it go”

It doesn’t show signs of locking,
Yet the performance it still quite shocking,
The CPU is right down low,
but its slow, but its slow, but its slow.

When we finally trace the load,
The problem is rapidly found,
If you write lots of crappy code,
Then your app crumples to the ground

Now we write the application better,
The DB is no longer fettered,
So as long as we write good code,
It wont be slow, wont be slow, wont be slow.

Merry Christmas everyone
