[snip] i also feel the time has come to redefine 'throughput' more carefully than just look at raw computing power.
on several machines running gnulinux, have noted the swap setting can at times slow down performance. tinkering with 'low latency' settings in ubuntustudio just shows how every OS needs to switch to saffola ;-) your application may just define how you wish to define your hardware configuration. all too often, hi-speed ram and in the right generous amounts can bring significant speeds. hey! you all know the stuff, but the point is, where is the quick 'n neat reference on the web or elsewhere so new-bhais (!) know how to custom-configure their machines, save money on a cpu purchase, and offset that with other components for a faster digital ecosystem? time for a new thread, forum, or hopefully, a wiki? :-) niyam _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - September 28-29, 2007 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
