It seems that adding much more RAM (the fastest
kind of RAM you can find)
to all machines would help most. So that all the
databases fit in RAM,
and there's plenty space left for tcp/ip
connection buffers,
per-process PHP memory etc.
Current database design is very centralized, so
single kickass machine
would probably help more.
Well, I do agree that a single kickass machine would
probably help the
most, you really can't get something that kickass
for $3000, especially
in a rackmountable format. I think it will be much
cheaper and more
cost effective upgrading pliny, if possible. $3000
will just not buy
you a dual Athlon 2800/4GB DDR/2x 72GB SCSI disk
rackmountable machine.
