Why is SMP a requirement for busy download sites? 2002-08-14
Anonymous

Speaking as someone who has run several big sites. I can see no reason why SMP is a requirement for such sites. RAM, bandwidth and sensible software are required.
Walnut Creeks record from 1998 must surely have been broken by now, but this was done with a *single* pentium pro at 200MHz. (Infact I am pretty sure they broke it themselves, before their demise.)
