Corrected order follows. Previous one incorrectly had 512MB of RAM for the 6 Apaches. 1GB is desired for those to allow for enough active connections at high load.

That should tide us over until we have enough $$$ for new servers.
You ever think of buying a couple extra sticks of ram once in a while for the older ones, or is it impossible to upgrade the older ones due to lack of space/inability to shut down without exorbant amounts of load on other machines?

It is not impossible, but our experience with this is not good. Yes, it sounds simple, but the fact is, machines die when I touch them. :-)

Plus, I doubt the other apaches would cope with the load, while we upgrade and test. We are running these things at 90-100% capacity.
Dont touch the machines! We cant deal with the loss of another! :P
