I'm confused (in Linux) on how this saves, since I would expect that throughput, memory, and context switching on VM boxen would _at best_ only equal running all those services on one box. What am I missing? Doesn't it add up to the same number of instructions per time uint, the same memory load, the same disk space (except VM should need marginally more for context switching)? -- Lan Barnes SCM Analyst Linux Guy Tcl/Tk Enthusiast Biodiesel Brewer -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
