Good point, tho i do ps -e which only lists the process name, not its params. So greps not included. Here's the count specifically excluding greps... $ ps -ef | grep apache2 | grep -v grep | wc 29 3192349 Here's the straight grepped output with f added [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ps -ef |

I'm starting off with everything on 1 server. As for traffic at the start I'm looking at 2000-3000 hits/10K - 20K page views per day. Maybe I should have asked this instead : If you used one of www.slicehost.com VPS's (say the 512MB ram one).. from any experience you may have on similar setups, r
