I have implemented 3 IXS's and 1 IXA within the last 6 months.  With 3 of
them I am getting some 'questions' or FUD from vendors whose products run
on these machines.  Personally, I would have never let on that their
product was running on an IXA and an IXS but my boss couldn't contain his
enthusiasm.  My problem is that we have 'performance' questions on a couple
of these boxes and of course the vendors are making comments about
potential issues with the IX's devices.

The machines exceed their specs in all cases (1.0Ghz with 2Gig of memory
requirement is on a 1.6Ghz 4 Gig machine etc.)  These are implemented on
machines that have a high amount of disk arms also.

So, my question is:

1.) In general what has been the experience with other users of these
machines

2.) Is there some sort of metric program that we could run on these
machines that might generate relative performance numbers?
