U160 vs U320 makes little difference if you have only one hard disk. I have never seen a disk that can do more than 70MB/s sustained (and the transfer rates under real load are usually much lower). Two CPUs are not necessarily faster than one. There is overhead in locking data structures. If an application is only written to use one CPU then the second is just dead weight. For good test results you change one thing at a time. Change three or more things at once (CPU, disk, and compilation options) and you will never know how much each one affected the results. -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
