Hmm, the P4 seems to perform bad whatever it does, DC hubs also perform really bad with P4... That I can agree on, but what you said about ram, "The only thing that saves me is the excessive amount of ram I've got"... Either is uses the ram, or it doesn't... Better to spend money on fast cpus than more ram than needed... 128mb for each CS is good enough. The servers we have doesn't use above 100mb of ram, even if then have been on for a couple of weeks...
