Hi there! I'm considering assembling an Athlon-based multipurpose server (Apache+PHP/MySQL/Sendmail/etc.) and would like to hear from administrators that runs Athlon-based servers how is performs. The Athlon has many pros, including low pricing, low cost motherboards, etc. Is there any reason that shoud lead me to pick a lower clock Intel processor (eg. Pentium III 800 MHz), instead a more powerful Athlon 1.4 GHz? By the way, how does memory affects performance regarding Apache and other services that need fast response? Should I seriously consider DDR-memory instead a lot of SDRAM or it doesn't matters at all? I appreciate all feedback. Thank you very much. --- Conrado Vardanega cvarda@ig.com.br http://go.to/conrado To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
