Or is it?)
True, but he's talking about Apache, MySQL, and I believe
PHP. All together, that could be painful. I think the key
thing will be ensuring that the system has enough RAM and to
try to keep it from swapping. The one good thing about a
3000/300LX is that it takes 72-pin True Parity RAM. I'd
recommend maxing it if at all possible. Pentium Pro servers
can be a good source of RAM.
All MySQL is currently doing is guestbook stuff and a couple of smaller
things so it's not exactly being stressed :) Fortunately there's 160mb of
RAM in there with 4x8mb SIMMS I can swap out if necessary. The machine won't
be doing anything else apart from Apache so swapping can hopefully be
avoided.
Cheers
