Sam,
Is everything running on one machine/ If so moving the FMP DB's to a
different machine should help.

Also on the Witango Webster machine increasing the RAM to 1G should help.

Sure a G5 is going to be a lot faster. Even a G4 Dual 1.5 or whatever the
dual is now would be a lot faster.


There are several alternatives in the G4 line also you might consider and
Xserve or the G5

I am happy to provide the Witango list folks a close to reseller price and I
can do custom configurations from the apple build to order store so if you
contact me off list I will give you a few price quotes and specs.
