My subliminal message was more-than-likely something like this: "There is very little justification for being single threaded in network operations in today's very inexpensive, high performance, UN*X world.' (IYKWIM) So, the issue, does not really appear to be "Router Servers: Are They A Good Thing, Yes or No"? as implied in a much earlier post, but more an architecutural issue, single threaded configurations, and so forth. Even 'experimental, non-operational' (whatever that really means in the real world.... use at your own risk) services such as RA could easily and cheaply have some redundancy built in at a very moderate cost in todays world. Back to Saturday, Best Regards, Tim Side note to Gordon Cook based on his contribution earlier: Gordon, just a little barb to you, please do not take it personally, but.. "is your current trip to Russia also funded by the NSF similar to your previous trip"? ( inquiring minds want to know ;-) Whoops! There I go again, standing in the corner, just losing my religion.... Oh well, I said too much, I haven't said enought.... Micheal Stipe, REM. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
