>Tuning it for better performance will depend on what you are using it >for since "better" will be relative to that. The idea behind it was the following. The basic kernal is missing, so far I can remember, a flag for using more then one CPU. Probably there is also included a flag for using Hyper Threading. In first line I am curious or this configured automaticaly so the full capabilities are used automatically. The server will basically be used for running http, php and mysql and maybe a chat server. The configuration will be probably (2*2.4GHz Xeon, 1 GB memory, 2 36GB Raptor SATA disks). The reason/background behind this: My old RAQ4 is missing the latest php versions from SUN and they are just updating the most necessary security updates. Meanwhil my memberlist on my webserver is increasing so I am planning to make this step (at this moment the configuration is overkill, I know .. I know).
