I know there is no = specific performance value, because of that I wanted make separated lists for those = basic types (Maybe my english wasn't descriptive enough for that :( ). And also I = wanted know why that or other value is important for the concrete type of server... I know it = all stands on the knowledges of HW architectures, kernel, FS and alike... but I don't have = these knowdleges (yet) and I need to meassure server. Because I need to have feedback, when = changing setting of server. Todor P.S. Can the number of packets per second be the optimistic assumption of = raw network processing power of the server?
