Re: Minimum server?

Hi Jeremy,

I don't know about FreeBSD, but I run my MV with a hosting company that uses
386-computers with Linux. It works great.
In most cases, the connection to the user will be the bottle-neck, not the
couple of mili-seconds of difference for a 486 and Pentium to display a
medium-sized page, or do a not too demanding search.
