http_load runs multiple http/https fetches in parallel, to test the
throughput of a web server. However unlike most such test clients,
it runs in a single process, so it doesn't bog down the client
machine.
You give it a file containing a list of URLs that may be fetched,
a flag specifying how to start connections (either by rate or by
number of simulated users), and a flag specifying when to quit
(either after a given number of fetches or a given elapsed time).
There are also optional flags for checksums, throttling, and progress
reports.

Sablotron is an attempt to develop fast, compact and portable XSLT
processor.
It is an open project; other users and developers are encouraged
to use it or to help test or improve it. The goal of this project
is to create a reliable and fast XSLT processor conforming to the
W3C specification, which is available for public viewing, and can
be used as a base for multi-platform XML data distribution systems.
Do the extract and installation ourselves, as the script is not really
needed. This avoids copying the archive around several times.
Provide a better shell-wrapper.
Fix dependencies.
Fake.
Use some weird code to allow backward compatibility.
Rely on distfiles suffixes and a case statement (with matching variable
EXTRACT_CASES) to allow distinct extraction rules for multiple distfiles.

Libart is a library for high-performance 2D graphics.
Libart supports a very powerful imaging model, basically the same as SVG
and the Java 2D API. It includes all PostScript imaging operations, and
adds antialiasing and alpha-transparency.
Libart is also highly tuned for incremental rendering. It contains data
structures and algorithms suited to rapid, precise computation of Region
of Interest, as well as a two-phase rendering pipeline optimized for
interactive display.
