What does the pricing look like? _____ From: Armstrong, Robert [mailto:robert.armstrong@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, July 09, 2003 12:14 PM To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Christine, There may be many differing opinions on this one, but here is what I do. There is no hard and fast rule as to what is optimal (at least this is what I have discovered over that past few years) to determining what the optimum CMF server is. This "optimum" server is a product of many factors including number of applications, application memory footprint, network bandwidth requirements, number of users, peak usage periods for each application etc. etc. What I have found most beneficial is a product called Systrack from http://www.lakesidesoftware.com/ <http://www.lakesidesoftware.com/> Systrack is a fantastic product that will allow you to grab server and application statistics from your CMF servers and perform some really usefull analysis and will provide you with the answers you need to build the perfect CMF server for your environment. Systrack will allow you to zero in on your peak usage periods, application resource requirements, system performance during those periods etc. ect. Look into it. It's not cheap though Good luck -----Original Message----- From: Christine Easton [mailto:Christine.Easton@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, July 09, 2003 12:58 PM To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] Determining load Can anyone point me to a tech paper that explains how you should determine your user load for Citrix servers? What type of process speed, memory, etc. you need to have a smooth running environment. Thanks. -Christine Christine N.
