How can you actually make sensitive operations take constant time? This sounds impossibly hard. For example, your operating system could be context switching thousands of times per second. Your password comparison function could cause a page fault because the trailing end of the password spans onto another page of virtual memory. These are all factors that would throw any calculation for constant time out of the window.

I am an undergraduate student in my final year at university. I am undertaking a dissertation to look at developing an open source web analytics package for large scale websites.
I want to understand how individuals, companies and organisations feel about their web analytics software, the security and privacy of the data collected through web analytics and if their is a demand for an open source web analytics designed for large scale websites, such as the BBC, Reuters, Hacker News, etc.
