Hi there the main problem with computer performance is usually SLOW DISKS -- normally not a problem when streaming audio but when scanning MySQL is used as your DB is updated. This isn't an inherent problem with the server -- it's always a shame but most people buy rediculously overpowered CPU's (QUAD's for example) and load and loads of RAM when all you really need --especially for a server is just some DECENT FAST HDD's. For some apps you might need a QUAD processor --that's another issue - but for any sort of server you need FAST DISKS.
