[THIN] Re: New Citrix install

The overhead of performing the DataCollector role is very light in a
small farm.  If you are using load-base load evaluators
(cpu/mem/paging) you will see that your DC doesn't even blink.

Having said that... I do have an "admin server" from which helpdesk
does shadowing, and some other mgmt functions.  (no app load)  That is
logically my DC, among other things.  You don't need a dedicated DC
unless you have a very large zone.  Citrix used to say 100+, but I've
not asked them about it in years.  With today's hardware the number
may be much higher now.
