I think the PageBuilder process and SQL server stamp all over each other for resources on the server, and that Disk IO is the one which gets really hammered. It may be possible to achieve good performance with two disk arrays in the server and a whole lot of RAM but if you're going down that road you may as well just use two servers for the job.
In fact the publishing process is so heavy weight RedDot recommended we have two RedDot servers. One for content editing (0 asynchronous processes) and one for publishing tasks (as many asynchronous process as the server will take). Plus a separate box for SQL. Of course I'm sure this had nothing to do with sale of another server licence :) Keith.
