Absolutely essential I would have said.

Not sure if I've seen an FAQ note on the importance of planning for
high inode usage. Around here, that most hated of commands must surely
be:

# /usr/bin/df -F ufs -o i

And it seems one could do worse than to replace the heterogeneous
Apache/Tomcat/Something Else combination with the just the Sun Java
System Web Server 7.0, perhaps running several instances:

BTW something I noticed with SJSWS 7.0 yesterday -- I had never seen it
with 6.1 -- is the (new?) deploy option to pre-compile the web app's
JSP code. Its possible that Tomcat &c. has had such a thing for a
while, and that this is really old hat, but still, I was pleasantly
surprised at how much it improved the performance of DSpace 1.4.
