Considering the fact that our web site has not been a large factor in our marketing direction, and the site has received less that 1000 "hits" per week on average, it was and currently is (IMHO) a perfect choice for our application. However, in the last couple of weeks, it's been "bumped" to a 133MHz Pentium with *gasp* a fast ethernet card (as a result of a power supply fan failure in the previous box). Perhaps it was my fault, but I never imagined anyone claiming to have any knowledge whatsoever would attempt to perform a test of "backbone" providers performance based upon said vendors web server(s). I guess they call that "naive". Chris A. Icide ---------- From: Tim Gibson[SMTP:tim@taggnet.skyscape.net] Sent: Friday, June 27, 1997 2:45 AM To: Joseph T. Klein Cc: Chris A.

Is the NAP.NET web server still a 90MHz Pentium running BSDI?

Interesting enough,
Does it REALLY matter?!?! As long as it ain't some MS product clogging the lan with needless broadcasts and it's big enough to service those that are ignorant to think a national provider's web site *IS* a measure of their backbone/service.... BSDI is a damn fine product!
