No, it's the same version of htdig and the identical config file. Unfortunately. We seem to be getting somewhat inconsistent results; it was faster the next time I fiddled with it, or so it seemed to me. Nothing else is going on on the box except an Interchange site with one user, so it pretty much has all the resources to itself. Odd that it would not be consistent. We like the minis because cabinet space at the colo is expensive, but I think we are probably going to abandon the experiment for now and use the mini for something that's not so disk I/O intensive. janine On Jul 15, 2005, at 3:51 PM, Jim wrote: > On Thu, 14 Jul 2005, Janine Sisk wrote: > >> If the problem is the slow disk drives then using OS X probably isn't >> going to help.
