If 2552 users downloading files simultaneously isn't a "heavily" used server, I don't know what is. As for the statement that real servers are RISC, I'd file that along with "Blonds have more fun" and "Fat people are naturally jolly." A real server is one that works and hopefully, makes you money. -Craig To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
