- We are wondering what the capacity of a machine such as the Sparc 10 Mod 30/41
- would be to support concurrent X-terminal sessions. Let's say for argument
- that the machine has plenty 'O swap and memory (64Mb+), and that the application
- is a 2D CAD program (actually would be a GIS), with an even mixture of
- computation and I/O.
-
- How many concurrent sessions could be supported, giving each one "acceptable"
- response?
- With or without a system console as one of the X sessions?
-
- Any relayed experiences/anecdotes would be much appreciated.
