I'm not talking about a dedicated database server, but a dedicated *query*
server where the only thing done on that server is handling queries,
allowing maximum processor capacity to be dedicated to it.

down the server.
Does this *have* to be on the toolserver, or can we take the databases
and
put it on its own server dedicated for querying?
Maybe we could have a

*multi-server* layout featuring a distributed
computing scheme.
We do have dedicated database servers. The toolserver is not one server.
