  1. 20-100k hits per DAY?? on Apache vs IIS in Performance? · · Score: 2
    Fuzzy math here. There are 86,400 seconds in a day. At 1.15 hits per second, you get 100k hits.

    I think my HP-200LX palmtop can serve that or better....

    I threw together a mysql/perl/apache combo to replace a horrid sql server/NT app that sucked. With purely unoptimized sql and half-ass CGI.pm code, I got about 4 hits per second (which included the db lookups) versus 1 per sec on NT, with all of it running on a single cpu AMD K6-350.

    I know, not definitive enough.... Don't forget to try ApacheBench for torturing the boxes. A company called Cyrano makes some good loadtesting software too.

  2. Re:Great computer... on Timex Sinclair ZX81 Back On the Market · · Score: 1
    When Timex got involved, it became the TS-1000. Sinclair had the ZX-** moniker.

    I have one here on my rack, right on top of my Linux box that has an uptime of 332 days.

    The avg uptime on that damn Sinclair was about 2 hours. Gawd, how many times I retyped a program because I bumped that 16k RAM pack and lost it all....

    $99 is way too much though.....

  3. NOVALUG on Friday Quickies · · Score: 1

    Thanks for the NOVALUG mention Justin.

    We'll probably get slashdotted and a riot will ensue..... how are the jails in Arlington? Anyone?

    Tomorrow's topics: Keysigning/PGP and Ordering those speedy telco lines.

    Bring it!
