ok so i was thinking about putting together a relatively cheap server
i was thinking like
2x2500+ 3 or 4 gigs of cheap ram , and some cheap hard-drive
and gigabit NICs
now if i were to make 2 or 3 gigs of that ram into a ramdisk
then make that partition shared over the net -- via smb
now what kind of throughput//access times would i be looking at?
also what would be a bottleneck for access throughput? (the NIC, ram speed?)
thanks
