Was [Gllug] Best option for a lot of compute power

Tue Jun 8 09:47:20 UTC 2004

Have been following this thread with interest. We run web services which
are very db & disk intensive.
We had planned on ordering some Dell 1750's (XEON with HT), but the
concensus seems to be that's not the best option?
Would opterons be better for this purpose? Would we then need to run a
64 bit OS? Reccomendations?

Thanks
Luke
