Yes and no... If you want to try it, you'll have to go back to the 2.2.x releases. But it'll swap the hell out of your harddisks and there isn't really anything you can do on the machine further. Memory is more important than CPU-speed btw, you should have enough that you, in general, don't have swapping. Edwin -- Edwin Groothuis | Interested in MUDs?
