RE: Saving the System i: Fight Rather Than Switch

From: Lukas Beeler


On pure web serving, it might be a great spec.  For concurrent

transaction

processing, maybe not so cool.  But the iSeries will handle dozens, if

not

100s, of users.


With the two standard 36GB Disks? The system already grinds to a halt when
im transferring CUMPTF Images from a windows server to it (FTP).


Yes, I agree that disk price is much higher on the iSeries, and out of line
compared to the actual cost now that the controllers no longer have on-board
processors.  But I also do FTP all the time and I don't see the "grind to a
halt" that you speak of.  Besides, how often do you send these images?  How
long does it take?
