First off, we don't have reporting on. I can see how using reporting can be useful, but it can also be a heavy load on a server. We do use Store Config.
Our server is a Mac Xserve. 2 x 4 core Xeon processors. 8GB of RAM. We have no load issues with about 1300 clients checking in hourly. That said, our configurations aren't very complicated. Some obvious ways to split the load between servers are to use a different server for MySQL and/or use a different server for file distribution. Hope this helps. --- Thanks, Allan Marcus 505-667-5666 On Jun 5, 2010, at 6:36 AM, Chuck wrote: > Thanks for the white paper it was very helpful. A few questions > though, if you can answer it.
