I'd propose getting a number of fast internal hard drives for the machine, rather than abusing those LaCie disks -- they're really good for storage, but I think that they create a pretty significant bottleneck during computations that write to disk. (I cannot substantiate this claim) I mean, hey. Memory is great. But buying more memory doesn't solve a leakage problem -- if Apache is eating all the memory on the machine, and you double the memory... then it will happily eat all of that, too. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
