As a "large systems" developer, this (pervasive) attitude really
distresses me.
Why?
Maybe I should have said "presumably, there won't be much else running
on the server." But still, if a box is doing more than one thing, then
I don't see it as dedicated to one thing anymore.
"Large systems" (meaning mainframes and "traditional" minicomputers
running legacy OSs) are never dedicated. They run application
software as well as RDBMSs.
Translating that into "modern times", a Linux box *should* be able
to competently run MySQL and Apache at the same time.
