Dear Rich, can you explain with some numbers on that? How much RAM I need per each separate thread? How many replication agreement in a server equipped with 2, 4, 8, 16 GB RAM? How the avg. update rate influence these numbers? And the max update rate? 30 replication agreement per server is a medium value? large? huge? Too much? Out of any hardware configuration? Thank in advance. Ciao, Enrico Rich Megginson wrote: > Also important to keep in mind is your update rate - avg. updates per > minute, max. updates per minute.
