BFS runs on all of my machines, and I know why. But that's not the
point here. Why do people not accept and learn from each other? I'm
quite shure that both CFS and BFS has good and bad things, why not
take the best from both of them and improve it further?

I totally agree. What ticks me off is people who claim that using BFS means you must be schizophrenic, even though some of them posted numbers. Even on servers, BFS helped people. For example, a server running mainline was behaving badly until it was switched to BFS. The difference was quite impressive:

But still, many people decide to keep the "you're imagining it" attitude, as if they're preparing flame-bait.
