Hi all-

We're in the pre-planning stages of a large intranet project and are trying
to ensure we have the proper setup for spectra to run smoothly in an
NT/Oracle environment. I looked through the archives, but had little luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've heard conflicting reports regarding how powerful the server(s) needs to
be. We're serving to an audience of about 30,000. Any ballpark figures from
your experiences would be great (Is quad pentium a must? minimum ram for
smooth processing?). A recent article in CFDJ indicated that with separate
web and db servers, the db server should get the more powerful box. And yet,
I've heard that with all the db cacheing in Spectra the load on the db is
surprising low, while the load on the web server is higher than expected.
Thoughts?

I'm struggling with the overall approach to searching for the site. I've
never used Verity on a project of this scale (approx. 30,000+ indexable
items). I've heard horror stories of Verity collections becoming corrupt and
requiring a lot of maintenance. But, the ability to search native documents
is important (and we've got quite a few of those). Would it be better to
just index the native docs, and use <cfa_contentObjectFind> for searching
web pages? Does the fact that verity doesn't need to hit the db with every
search call while <cfa_contentObjectFind> does, make a big difference?

Thanks in advance,
Danny
