Well, I think the problem here is that you are paying $400 for the RAM and
another $400 for the word "Dell". ;)
To keep this kinda on topic though, I'm in the process of building a web
site that will hopefully have high volumes of traffic (~500,000 unique
visitors per day and about 134 million page views per month) within a couple
of years. Is there a good central resource for building high load sites of
this type? I'm looking for one that covers all of the bases: equipment,
operating systems, database optimization, clustering, scaling .. all them
fancy buzz-words. Though my main interest in using coldfusion for such
large scale projects, I would like to find something with all of that other
stuff in it too. I guess I'm looking for a mega-how-to. Like the way this
thread originally started, I'm looking to squeeze every bit of performance I
can out of everything. Anyone have any links they can toss my way?
Thanks
Todd Ashworth

| Yo, Paul,
|
| Where can I get a $1,000 server that will run 13,000 domains with 99.9%
| uptime? I am serious. I am paying about $800 for 512mb of ram on our
Dell
| 2450s. At that price, I would have to get everything else for $200!

| Please tell us. Or, just tell me<g>.
