  Dick Size War
  DSW
  IRC penis war
  
     <jargon, abuse> (Or "Dick Size War", "DSW") Any argument which
     has degenerated into quantitative boasting of the sort "My
     [program|bot|etc.] is [faster|meaner|etc.]  than yours!",
     generally as unconstructive (and with as little emphasis on
     empirical proof) as men debating who has the biggest penis.
  
     The term is often used on IRC, news:alt.sysadmin.recovery,
     and sometimes applied to IRC botwars, because of their
     equally pointless nature.
