Axkit.org currently runs on a P3-550 with no proxying behind a 256K DSL line. So yeah, the above would be faster (though we don't exactly need the performance - it's not like we're ebay). My one big worry is taking axkit.org elsewhere means we have to switch everyone's CVS access to something like cvs.axkit.org because we'd have lost the DNS A record to this new machine. But that's a one time change. I'm personally in no hurry to do this, but it depends what the community thinks. Matt.
