Mike,
thanks, but Lawson has already solved this - I can't read! I hadn't
created /dev/ppp because I kept reading the Changes file as "if you are
using devfs" when it actually says "if you are NOT using devfs". Sigh.

Even then 2 NICs would only double the max data per connect to 26Bytes. The
Min Ethernet frame size is 64B and to the best of my knowledge there is not
a way to ACK different connects in the same packet. The numbers posted seem
completely irrational.

So your calculation with only a single interface was at least wrong.

The box probably has multiple network interfaces.

Please
But why would they be measuring IIS and tweaking web servers like Apache if
all they are doing is measuring connections acknowledged? Thats an OS

Looks to me like it's the number of requests acknowledged, not served.
What I don't understand is how a single real-world client could possibly
generate more than 100,000 requests per second, unless it's engaged in a
DOS attack or something similar. (???)
Maybe I'm wrong, but it appears to be s
If you look at the graph at the bottom of the page, they say that their
windows 2000 box can perform over 1 million requests per second with IIS!

Actually RH7 works fine and I have it in production in several places, after
the RPMs are freshened (with -F) from the RedHat update site, all works

More than anything, you'll probably want to look at a machine with a larger
amount of memory if your going to be running a windows manager with KDE or

My 50MHz 486 works great and is fast for compiling and surfing. I run
Slackware with an older window manager. The newer window managers may
require a bit more horsepower.
I've not heard good things about RH7.0. I'm sticking with RH6.2 (with
all the patches) and Slackware for most of my systems
