I
would suggest to profile/benchmark the application. Of course this only applys
to if you have the source code.
Just
my 0.02 NZ dollar. ;-)

I think they should
throw more money at making disk access faster or, more realistically, viable
alternatives - for us it is definitely the biggest bottle neck. Solid state is
not commercially viable for large storage sizes yet (It's certainly cheaper
than it used to be but can't be compared to conventional hard drives for
cost).
I guess we could squeeze a little bit more of multiple core
CPUs, but more/cheaper RAM, faster storage access are the real performance
drivers for mapping/GIS software.
Cheers, Phil.

Correct, it's old news in that area. But nonetheless real work,
depending on how well the framework you're using supports it.
The difference implied by the article quoted is that more
applications and hence developers will be running up against real
performance bottlenecks in future, and will have to find ways to deal
with them. Not just Phil Scadden and all us web developers <g>.
want. I don't see a huge impact here except for gamers and processor
intensive apps like graphics & number crunching?
Hmmm, an hypothesis. What do others think? Bags of room on the upside
for most of what you do?
cheers,
