A killing? Not really... ;) I suppose it depends on how fair you are. CFMX7 is a memory hog. We have to specially tweak it to get it to run stable on our 256 MB VPS's. Even then, if you do anything that's slightly memory intensive, we will recommend you get something bigger then a basic VPS. In addition, CFMX7 will not run without X installed. It'll throw an error message if you try. X doesn't have to be running, but it has to be installed. I would still say that the system reqs for a linux box are smaller then that of a windows box, but not by as much as we would hope. =\ BlueDragon, on the other hand, runs beautifully on smaller systems. It's quite content to do plenty of useful things 256 MB RAM. I've never actually run it on Windows though... so I can't provide any insight there. -- Warm regards, Jordan Michaels Vivio Technologies http://www.viviotech.net/ Blue Dragon Alliance Member [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:258763 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
