I'm saying I'm running it on my primary box with only 640MB RAM, 1 GIG swap and I have no performance issues whatsoever. So, the fact that hardware was discussed before I made my comment, it was to emphasize that the hardware issue is probably moot. Somewhere there's a configuration issue. And it ain't a common issue on every machine, so the point is, instead of bashing Beagle as a problem for everyone, let's focus on why its a problem for SOME people and not others. Then we can get to the root of the problem. -- ---Bryen--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
