Ok, I know this is slightly offtopic (cool server specs, Yay! now i've retained a semblance of ontopicness ;) but when I try to post too soon I noticed a couple of things.
First, by my clock I waited 75 seconds between posts, but Slashdot says it was 68. (ouchie)
Second, ok, now problem, so I wait 2 seconds and try to submit (68+2 = 70, right). Oh, now it says its only been 5 seconds. Trying to keep us trigger happy submitters from trying to submit too often huh?

yep, I think thats the idea, but you have to ask Tofu. I only know about the servers/OS/network
ok....
for the missing specs:
Two Arrowpoint CS-150's (16 port) will be replacing the one arrowpoint
CS-100 we have in there now.
the Cisco switch is a 6509 with two RSM/MSVT (Router/Switch boxes)
so the 6509 contains two routers and one backup switch module. if one
breaks the other takes over.
the pipe is approximately 100Mbits out and 200mbits coming in.
its pretty sweet.
oh yeah, its Oddysey

Time to get a post in edgewise.
With Windows Millenium MS was able to get the boot time down to 25 seconds.
That's almost as short as it's uptime. |

| Sorry for the multiple re-submissions on the AAAAAAHHHHHHH! story. I didn't realize that the submit page would allow you to repost the same story again (actually I did it hundreds of times) by reloading the submit.pl page. May I suggest tagging the stories prior to submission with an id and not allowing the same id to actually be submitted to the story queue more than once? Again, sorry, but, this is the beta server....

| I'm too honest. I've never tried doing that here (or on other sites) before. After accidently submitting the AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH! story twice (and purposefully doing it ||: again :|| )I tried it on messages posts. Well, there's great protection for this kind of thing in message posts, so I assume / can easily handle the same for story submissions? Any reason why it does not?

what, no proxies for mod_perl servers? (Score:3, Informative)

Have you guys read the mod_perl guide (perl.apache.org/guide)? It (and the gurus on the mod_perl list, I believe) espouses the use of a proxy server, which serves to buffer dynamic content & allow the heavyweight mod_perl processes to keep generating content, rather than generate content and then wait around for the client to close the connection. Seems like that sort of structure might allow you to save a few hundred bucks a month on the power bill...

| Three beggars are begging in New York City. The first one wrote "beg" on his broken steel cup. After one day he had received ten bucks. The second one wrote "beg.com" on his cup. After one day he had received hundreds of thousand of dollars. Someone even wanted to take him to NASDAQ. The third one wrote "eBeg" on his cup. Both IBM and HP sent vice-presidents to talk to him about a strategic alliance and offered him free hardware and professional consulting. Larry Ellison claimed on CNBC that eBeg uses 95% Oracle technology. i2 announced begTradeMatrix, a b2b industry portal to offer supply chain integration in the beggar market. Cisco just announced that virtually all eBeg traffic runs over their equipment.

Not the happiest time in my life, but at least something worthwhile moved in to replace me. :-] Obligatory beta.slashdot.org troll-post: dude, why bother with those weenie 600 MHz pee-threes; get a couple of G4 boxen w/ a gig of RAM and the 3x36GB SCSI array running Mac OS X Server, and you're set.

The actual pipe is pproximately 100Mbits out and 200mbits coming in.
So, that's 100 megabits (a hundred million) out, and 200 millibits (two hundred thousanths) in? 200 millibits... that's a fifth of a bit. Presumably these are per-second figures. So it takes the new Slashdot five seconds to receive a bit. Hmm. I suggest upgrading.
