Hi all
Sun has agreed to donate an additional server to act as a login server for Zedler (what login-services does now), replacing the login-services zone.
cool!
this will allow MySQL to run without influence from CPU-consuming user processes.
Hm... how much CPU eating user processes do we see currently? Does this split really make sense?
I would propose to split a different way: have a "research" or "analysis" server (few but heavy queries) separate from the "tools" server (web service, many relatively fast queries). I believe this would help more to make the server(s) more useful.
