Personally, I would check for any extra processes running on the box and kill them (eg, sendmail when its not needed). I would then nab and install (assuming linux) 2.4.10 or 2.4.12 if you feel saucey. Make sure to have only what you need enabled.
After I did this I would watch the load closely. Hmm, if you wanna you can even send me an xload just so I can stare at it myself xload -display draco.meatbarn.com & that will get it to me nicely :) (I can see it now, people popping up windows on my box all day long.... could be fun) -paul meatbarn.com gil brice wrote: > > Your results are what we are seeing.
