Since a fair number of home computers pcs these days have quad cores, 6 or more gigs of memory and 64 bit operating systems, perhaps it might make sense to come up with a Windows stand alone solution and decentralise the server computing requirements.<br>

As for the load: Most of the time Errol is using half a core right now<br>
and it has 16 ! I think when Richard did Amsterdam to Girona, most of<br>
the data was swapped out and he had to wait a few seconds for it to be<br>
swapped back in. Under full production we may choose to lock the data<br>
in RAM.<br>

Actually it's 8 cores, but with hyperthreading. So it can't do the full work of 16 cores but can probably do a bit more that 8 cores worth.<div class="im"><br>
