I think that you are taking a big risk assuming that kde,fedora,amd-64 is the issue here. These are well used, known to work, areas of the world. There *may* be issues with 8G ram and the above. There *may* be issues with hardware. Swapping Distro's is a risky path: The same issue may occur in another distro and you've proved NOTHING. I'd start by winding the server down to 1G RAM, then taking small steps to identify the area of issue. You could also start by installing a 32bit CentOS, SuSE, heck even Fedora and trying that (The performance diff 32 to 64 is small, probably under 10%, but it would give some milestones) Going to the Debian way from the RedHat way is quite a significant step, so I'd ignore ubuntu for the moment. (but it's worth doing for your own edification and delight) James ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
