Re: Web forms / Netscape 4.04

Yes, I think memory is the key here. If you have enough memory / swap space on disk you could have more than 10 users. Each user (session) seems to demand 10-15 MB of server memory, so there's certainly some tough limits. If you load the server with more than 10 users, I fear you can meet other limitations. My needs are a maximum of 5-10 users, so I'm happy as it is.
