Re: Sizing Oracle server

hire me and i will tell you.
(Personally 900 con users for an NT4 Server sounds a bit MUCH. I don't like to start an NT-UNIX war here. But you are talking to someone who knows NT4 well and i advice against it. I tried it once at RICOH ESPC (european warehouse and distribution centre) in AMSTERDAM HOLLAND.
For 30 users concurrently:
256MB inernal mem
2 P233Mhz processors
4 scsci (4 GB) + ultra white raid5 controller.

(NT4.0 crashed when we went up to 34 users concurrently). I shit you not!!

Maybe NT5 will be more scalable.
