We did a fair amount of testing two years ago and put some graphs at http://wiki.statsbiblioteket.dk/summa/Hardware The short version is that they'll probably boost your raw search speed a lot. However, often all the web service wrapping and similar is the main performance bottleneck. Things has changes since then: CPU's, RAM and SSDs has gotten faster while hard disks has stayed the same, so the performance gap between SSDs and harddisks has widened. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
