This is from an IBM 486SX/25 with 16MB ram that was dredged from the back closet to serve as a 5 user samba print and file server: text data bss dec hex 1044480 69632 87140 1201252 125464 3817.34s real 3195.95s user 402.75s system For all the lack of horse power, this machine does it's job quite well.
