We had quite a bit of an outage today. Our server, still not upgraded, ran completely out of memory and stood still, swapping, for a couple of hours until we got it rebooted.

Have you considered running a VM on a higher powered server and constraining the resources available to the VM? That should allow you to achieve the performance profile results you were aiming at with your current server, but also give you a bit more stability and flexibility when the extra grunt is needed

Next question: Why are you bumping this?

Edit: I recall Jorb asking for us mods not to toy around with Announcement threads, but I hope in this case it is ok if I lock it up.

Haha, wow. This was a long time ago. Locking it seems fine. :)
