Florian, Batik can render 2800 by 2800 fine if you give the computer ample of RAM. I would go for 768MB or 1GB. You don't have to use dual CPU because Java doesn't seem to utilize them well, in fact, in most cases I see a decrease of performance. If I were you, I would go for some pizzabox-like thin servers from Dell (they are just about $400 for 128MB RAM and 1.1Ghz Celeron) If you only run Batik on it, I would install Linux so the OS will leave lots of room for Java and Batik.
Hope this helps. - Tangent > -----Original Message----- > From: florian [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, March 18, 2002 4:27 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: how scalable is batik? > > > > hi! > > i was wondering how scalable batik is.. is it possible to > rasterize pngs which are 2800 x 2800 pixel big, and about > 3000 of them per day? > > basicly im wondering if hardware is the limit for java and > batik, and i can render as big and as much pictures as much > memory and cpu power i have, or if java or batik itself has > some limitations, even when i have the best hardware > available on the market? ; ) > > thanks alot! > > ciao! > florian > > > > -- > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
