  • Subject: Enough grunt for v4r5?

Hi,

We're looking at upgrading our box from v4r3 to v4r5 (just to get to a
supported release). 

The machine is a 9402 400 with processor feature 2131. We have 160MB of
RAM and 24GB of disk with 16GB usable (combination RAID/MIRROR) of which
about 54% is used. It's supporting mainly green screen/telnet
interactive users (about 30) and a tiny bit of netserver stuff.

I wouldn't say we have performance problems, but response time sometimes
is borderline, I would not want to see it get worse.

My question: if we go to v4r5 do I have to expect diminished
performance? Greatly diminished performance?

If I was to upgrade the RAM to the maximum the box can take (I think
about 224MB) would this make a big difference?

Thanks for your help.
Best regards,
Matthias
