Bob,
I can't change the SQL boxes or the network. The only place I can
help myself is in the layout for the new box. The new box will have UV,
a tiny Delphi program which reads from UV (via UniObjects), and two
tiny Delphi programs which do massive SQL selects over the slow network.
The thing is, I can say "2GB" memory or "4GB" memory, but I can't
say 'a lot'. I need to know if there is an upper limit after which the
system stops benefiting from more money being thrown at it.

How much does a gig of RAM cost? $50? (Okay, this might well be
expensive server ram ... :-)
I'd just fill the motherboard with the max it'll take. Oh - and make
sure you've got diagnostic software so if it IS slow, you can place the
blame in the right place. Sounds like you only need a minimal system for
your UV setup, so you need to be able to say that that's not the problem
- it should scream on almost anything you give it.
Cheers,
Wol
