We aren't having the performance problem on our Domino server.  
We have a S30-2260 with 6 Domino partitions (not LPAR).  Supporting 
just over 700 clients.  Not really banging on http yet.  Are you 
running enough horsepower?  Windows 2000 bites because it crawls on 
a 386, (if it ran at all).  There is a sizing web site.  Maybe the
IBM/Lotus team can help.

Subject:        Ready to scrap an AS/400

Right now, my perception IS reality!  I'm about ready to scrap this piece
of junk AS/400 for something else.  It just plain can't do the job!  We
have a 170 (V4R4M0)that is running Domino(5.0.4) and a voice response system
(VRS) as
the main applications along with the backend applications.  So there isn't
much to the system and it still can't handle it.  Domino locks up and causes
problems for the VRS as the http server consumes more of the cpu %.  This
means
members who are calling in to the VRS are either getting kicked out of the
system halfway through their process, or they can't even get in.  It also
means
that anyone who is trying to pay for memberships get locked out.  I can only
imagine what these people think, but I'm almost sure it's not good.  Since
many
of the membership include people who would be influential in the decisions
to
their own companies systems, I would ask, How is this for an advertisement
for
the AS/400? or How long can my business afford to be down with AS/400?

Ticked off with the AS/400.

I used to have a boss - different sort of fellow - anyways he used to quote
John Lennon.
"Perception is 99% of reality."



Nina,

You've hit the nail on the head here. It is not that the 400 *can't* do
these things. The problem is the *Perception* is that it can't do these
things.
