We have a web application for which we intend to run the database on a
dedicated server.
We hope by the end of 2008 to have 10 companies accessing 10 instances
of the database for this application. The dump file of each database is
likely to be less than 100MB at the end of the year. The databases

Is there a good way of benchmarking? We don't have much in the way of
test data at present.

Hi. We have a server provided for a test of a web application with the
following specifications:
1 Dual core 1.8GHz Opteron chip
6 GB RAM
approx 250GB of RAID10 storage (LSI card + BBU, 4 x 15000 RPM,16MB
Cache SCSI disks)
The database itself is very unlikely to use up more than 5

require anything spectacular, just good speedy general performance.
I imagine dedicating around 25% of RAM to Shared Memory and 2-4% for
