I had accounts on a MicroVAX 2 and a VAX 11/750.
The microvax was faster
for most compute jobs, but the 750 with 1/4 the memory handled more users
mostly in text editors with the occasional compile or nroff/troff jobs.
IIRC, the 750 had faster disks...
I'll agree with that. We used to run 40-50 users on our 8MB 11/750
(with both CMI and Unibus disk) but it did do some swapping over 8-10
users.
