I didn't mean for that to read as a boast, sorry if it did. Mainly I
just wanted you to know that the software is good and can perform as
well as whatever platform it is supported by. The 64 bit OS does not in
my opinion add to the performance we get (but it doesn't hurt either).
If your machine is capable of having many Gigs of ram you might look
into setting up a ram drive for swap. That can definitely tweak
performance if it is a possibility.
I do not think that it would be hard to write a perl script which
would parse your weekly reports and then produce a mnthly.
Good luck,
Karl
