Is that 40 million hits per day _with_ or _without_ CGI's? My PPro 200 moves a gigabyte of Usenet traffic every hour, is offered over 80 articles per second, offers about that same number out, and actually sends about 20% of that. But we have to bear in mind that an AMD 133 (assuming that's a "DX5/133"), even on a very good motherboard, has nowhere near the CPU potential of a PPro 200. If I didn't actually have to _process_ the data, I am sure I could shovel it around a heck of a lot faster. (That's why it's sorta important to know, is that with or without CGI's, and what kind of CPU) ... JGhome | help
