Hi all; Going into the year, I hope to be able to solve workstation lagging problems once and for all. I'm not sure where the bottleneck is as no swapping happens, and network thruput looks ok. But I often get lagging when a full class is on.
9.04 64 bit Ubuntu Server = intel quad core, 8 gig ram, SATA drive, server box has a gigibit ethernet but the switch is 100. It also runs the classes web server, very lightly used and along with that Mysql, again not very busy and not used at all in most classes. 20 Workstations are all 10 year old Ibm's, 256k ram. Which of these things would likely improve performance the most? 1. Reinstall the server version of Ubuntu 2. Lose the GUI on the server or at least drop Gnome for something faster 3. Run Firefox as a local app 4. Get a gigabit switch to replace our 10 year old 100meg switch. 5. Raid or SCSI disks 6.. Something I haven't thought of ..... thanks Harry Sweet Goshen High School Goshen, NY -- edubuntu-users mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/edubuntu-users
