They actually did try to optimize it a bit in v5.6.1, but the person that found the exploit was on the older unoptimized version v5.6.0.
I don't get it
it is actually how the exploit was found
The XZ exploit was found because some dude was investigating performance issues in a system, and noticed an unusual amount of time being spent in SSH processing, IIRC.
any inside joke about colour inverted image?
It's like the evil [character] meme where an image of them was inverted, along with a caption of something that's the opposite of what they'd say. So, here dystopia is basically depicted as "evil utopia"
Can we joke about log4shell? Maybe heartbleed?
