I notice on the updates page that the latest builds of DNews use threading,
and have this turned on by default if the platform supports it. I wonder if
threading would minimize the advantages of running dmulti on a platform with
good threading support, such as Solaris?
I'm running dmulti on a reader machine with a modest incoming feed (about
1gb per day), and I find it a bit more difficult to read the logs, use the
Web interface, etc. with dmulti. Not that this is a _really_ big deal, but I
guess I'd rather not use dmulti unless it really provides some big wins.
I generally have 50-100 concurrent users, a small 3 gb spool, and am running
on a dual-cpu Sparc 420 with 1 gb memory.
Thanks,
Tony
