We currently run a 700MB AREV data base on a Compaq Proliant 1500, 100MHZ with 64MB of memory running Banyan Vines. Users average about 12-15. We are using the MS DOS 3.1 locking service with reasonable response time. We switched to the NPP 1.5 to allow for a migration path to 32 bit applications. The response time went unacceptable. We moved the 700MB data base to a Compaq 5000, 200MHZ with 384MB of memory running with StreetTalk for NT on the NT Server and the response time with NPP 1.5 is running with a good response time. Question - Does anyone have any recommendations on how much memory and processor speed should be placed on a new server to allow for reasonable response time for the end user. Thanks for any help.
