I'm a former SGI guy and know that we've had a bunch of installations of this size and larger (much larger). It's not that big a deal any more. I don't know if that's true for the other vendors, having xfs and 128 processor machines tends to warp one's definiton of what is "hard". :-) -JohnG To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
