I'll bet you have a server chipset too. Still, I have serious doubts that the CPU is at fault. My guess would be that this could be a VIA chipset problem. The load averages while running these tests are allways well below 1. I mistyped the amount of memory. I have approx 409 MB. I am not swapping. > Your disk performance is faster than a 100BaseT network. So, your > performance may not be an issue. The network is gigabit, with a crossover to the client machine. I used ttcp to verify that the link is capable of over 146 MB/sec.
