Dave, We run our 250-user UniVerse system (10.1.x at the moment) on Windows 2003 Server. We have 2 x quad-core Xeon E5345 2.33GHz/1333FSB and 3GB RAM (no point in more on 32-bit O/S like Windows, Windows-64 could use more). So we have eight actual CPU cores, and it shows as 8 CPUs in Windows Task

Martin: Thanks. No anti-virus software because these machines aren't really on the internet. Backup is being done by NTBackup about an hour earlier than this process runs. An interesting comment by Tom Derwin though; that UD deletes the file than recreates is during a CLEAR.FILE action. I
