[-- Attachment #1 --] I am building a new NFS server. Looks like I be using the Intel SCB2 mother board (serverworks HE-SL chipset) that can take up to 6gb of ram, I know their were some issues with 4gb ram, what about 6 gb :-) (I know I am over 32 bit pointer, ints here). I know this is pushing it for memory but I can of like the idea of having all the cache :-) Kind of like a backing store ram disk :-) BTW using mylex 2000 (with external raid controlers on top) and gigabit Ethernet on separate pci buses to feed it. This system is moves allot of data.
