I cannot seem to get opengl to work.

To reply to myself, after some googling, it looks like yes, X is needed.

Which kinda sucks.  This is a webserver, it runs apache and postgresql.  In a 
rack someplace.  Doesn't even have a monitor attached.  If I ever need to do 
something I ssh in.

Its also has a crappy video card.  Cuz its a server.  Never thought I'd need 
good video.

So here is my delima: do I buy a $80 video card, and run X, so I can get 
hardware accelerated maps?  Is it worth it?  Is it that much faster?

How many concurrent maps can be drawn at once?  If 10 people hit my website can 
all 10 images be rendered at once?  Or will one run and the others error out?  
Is there an upper limit for the number of concurrent renderings?

Any benchmarks?
