Second, disable HT, it's useless and might cause more problems than good. Also, disable any idle controls, they are unnecessary in sever environment -- you do not want your machine's CPU or harddrive off for immediate response to client requests. Are you trying to save on power? -Simon On Thu, 05 Apr 2007 20:36:03 +0200, Robin Vley wrote: >Simon wrote: >Simon, >> Get 6.2, 5.4 is old and is known to have kernel bugs that are fixed in 6.x. >Sorry, should have mentioned it in the mail.
