Me 5 years ago : "Guys we are gonna have a perf..."

CEO : "Not now, we need to deliver that functionality asap"

Me 3 years ago : "Guys, performances/scalibiluity will hit us like a trucK'

CEO : "Not nowem a new functionality needs to be done ASAP"

Me 1 year ago : "We are gonna be hit by a tank. We won't even understand what happens"

CEO : "I'm sure we can manage"

2 Days ago : Plateform quasiment down, response time in MIONUTES instead of milliseconds, database on fire.

CEO : "WHAT THE FUCK !!! GO FIXC I ASAP WE CANNOT HAVE THAT SHIT HAPPEN".

In the CEO's defense, if it took 5 years before the performance issues became noticed, I'd almost call that a win for your company.

In 5 years a lot accumulates.

You have now the performance problem and the jolly forgotten maintenance of the last 5 years.

*sigh*

That's game of startup, isn't it? When you get bought before everything you win. If not, you loose and start up again.
