Re: [Zope] Hardware requirements: cpu or memory?

Hi,

I have Zope and Plone installed on a Pentium 266Mh with 64 MB Memory. And the site is running slow.

What is the most simple (and cheapest) way to increase its speeds? A new CPU, or could buying some more memory (like 256Mb) be enough?

I have a server with multiple low volume sites running perfectly on a 133 MHz Pentium. 256 MB of memory does the trick. The only thing that is a little slow is restarting. But that is generally not a problem as I tend to restart production server rather infrequently. Btw. It also runs Apache, IIS and a mail server... It isn't that long time ago that A 133 MHz machine was top of the line. Even then it was running Zope. regards Max M
