Take the max available - 1GB I believe is the max you have out there - take all of it.. The system startup needs the ARS Server to read large amounts of data from the database, and even with a 1 GB duplex connection between the AR Server and the database, it takes in some of the sites I have worked on over 30 minutes to start the AR System server. I'm not sure if its faster on a MS-SQL database server if its remote, but if you have a remote Oracle server, the cache is read in chunks of 100 records per chunk and it has over a 100K records to read while building its cache..
You definitely do not want your systems to choke on you while it does that..

The amount of traffic between the server and database is usually about the same as the traffic between the server and clients. Therefore, if your database is kept on a separate server, it is likely that it will approximately double the network bandwidth requirements. Regards, Sandeep Vyom Labs Pvt. Ltd.
