As I recall you had to either run VM ware under linux on intel or under windows XP. Which way did you go? I've heard it works much better for some things with linux as the base hosting OS.

Hi, Cameron.
Do you think your employer would be willing to share such "benchmark" data with the VM-Linux community? There always seems to be a lot of interest in real world examples and how well they do and don't work.

Transactions time out and move very very slow, if you go higher than 70 concurrent users well it crashes the whole thing. > -Cameron > > -----Original Message----- > From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of > Doug Fairobent > Sent: Friday, December 10, 2004 07:36 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: VMware vs. VM > > > I am currently trying to convince the management at my company to launch a > server consolidation project using Linux on VM.
