Hi,

        This is my first post to this list so please be patient on this 
one. I was told that this might be the place to get an answer to this 
question, although not entirely a MySQL Question. So, any suggestions or 
help would appreciated.

        We have a RaQ4i 400MHz server with 512MB of RAM running PHP4.03p1 
and MySQL 3.23.43 if memory serves correctly.

        We are looking at bringing on a client who uses 1 MySQL database 
and PHP to host a news site similar to Slashdot, the OpenSource app he 
uses is called GeekLog, if anyone has heard of it.

        He gets about 5000 unique visitors a day and about 100000 page 
views per day. He uses about 30GB of bandwidth a month. I cannot say how 
many actual queries the databases gets unfortunately. Most (30-40%) of 
the traffic appears to be around mid-day

        My question is - what is the opinion that our server can handle 
this site. In mind and experience there should be no problem with a site 
as this.

        Again, I realize that this is partially off topic, but it would 
also be nice to know of various server configurations that work with 
MySQL for people who are making custom installations with varying 
demands and configurations. Does such a place exist.

        Many thanks in advance for any help that anyone on the list can offer.
