3. The Jargon File (version 4.4.7, 29 Dec 2003) |
elephantine
adj.
Used of programs or systems that are both conspicuous hogs (owing perhaps
to poor design founded on brute force and ignorance) and exceedingly
hairy in source form. An elephantine program may be functional and even
friendly, but (as in the old joke about being in bed with an elephant) it's
tough to have around all the same (and, like a pachyderm, difficult to
maintain). In extreme cases, hackers have been known to make trumpeting
sounds or perform expressive proboscatory mime at the mention of the
offending program. Usage: semi-humorous. Compare ?has the elephant nature?
and the somewhat more pejorative monstrosity. See also second-system
effect and baroque.
