Server specs:
1GHz Coppermine
512 MB RAM
7200 rpm 60GB Drive.
Stock Red Hat 7.3 Apache
Stock IDS 0.82 (not running under mod_perl, or any other speed daemon)
Read he news section, specifically the Site Stats section. It gives you an
idea of how much is on it, and how large the files are. I should also mention
that I have previewmaker.pl generate 3 sets of previews when run instead of the
default one, 512, 640, and 800.
I personally noticed a speed increase when I moved away from my old SGI
Challenge which was a much, MUCH slower, 233 MHz RISC processor, with 512 MB
and a small 4.5 SCSI drive. But then, who wouldn't? It was a slow beast, even
for a RISC.
