Hi all,

At a company That Shall Not Be Named, the bean counters in IT support
are telling us that our new server can't be a standalone workstation.

Instead, they're going to give us a virtual Linux server on a
mainframe.

We will be running various SCM utilities on this server.  That means
some moin wiki hosting, CVS, subversion, bugzilla, etc.

A virtual server in itself wouldn't be so bad, but this one will be
static -- it will have about half the memory and I/O bandwidth and
capacity of the standalone Linux workstation we had envisioned.  This
doesn't make a lot of sense to me, since it seems like we're going
backwards from what we have now.

So I'm trying to come up with a test case we can use to break the
server, in order to show that their assessment of our requirements is
incorrect.

I have 5 or 6 wikis hosted on this server.  Generally, they don't get
a lot of traffic, but that could be arranged.

Can anybody think of some set of wiki operations that would overload
4GB of memory?

Ted
