It also seems to me that the overhead for the copy shop website is a bit
high. We have 150 websites of all sizes on a Raq 4i. Our connection is DS-3.
we are using the 2 10/100 nics. Now granted we don't allow ftp, just web and
email and telnet, etc. and our resources are hardly used. Only when
webalizer kicks in is the system taxed. some of our websites are 2 and 300
megs of info. i would think maybe monitor the send/receive for the burst
levels. You may find that you are hardly using bandwidth all the time.
