Search Again: Re: Server sizing issue? From: Barry Cotter Date: Monday, July 19, 1999 Time: 8:32:00 pm Hi, I used to run my QDNS 2.x with a large memory partition... ie. 6-10mb. When I upgraded to 2.2.1 I found that QDNS started to crash frequently and the only way I could avoid the crashing was to set the memory partition back to the default. There _may_ have been something else causing the crashing problem but I couldn't find it. I server 150 domains currently with this server and find it does tend to be a little slow these days at resolving. Any thoughts on the memory problem I experienced and, whether more memory for the app would help with resolution? I also used to be able to keep the Admin app running but now find doing so leads to instability. BTW, I run it on a 6100 w/24mb of RAM, OS 8.1, virtual memory turned off... nothing else on the box. Thanks.
