Next he will tell you to use WINE to emulate windows in Linux.  Back on
topic, every time I have checked IE 6 has been more of a resource pig
than 5.5.

~}It's taken me almost a month, generated about 1GB in logs, and
probably
~}took almost 60hrs.  I've correlated almost all the "hangs" on my main
~}server to which applications were running and how (CPU, RAM) the
~}applications were running.  What I found is something we all knew:
~}Internet Explorer and Lotus Notes are two big apps.  Each app has gone
~}above 250% CPU.  If I read this corrrectly, it means that they were
~}taking
~}up the resources of 2.5 CPUs of my quad processor server.  That's a
lot
~}of
~}processing.  They have also taken over 1GB in RAM, at times.    These
~}are
~}per instance metrics.  In other words, a when the CPU or RAM spiked,
it
~}was
~}in a single session.  Someone else could have been using the same apps
~}with
~}minimal performance hit to the server.
~}
~}I've also learned that when you tell perfmon to monitor ALL threads,
~}prepare yourself for a lot of work.  Huge files, tons of entries...You
~}wouldn't believe what my screen looked like.  There were so many lines
~}on
~}the screen that it took about 3 seconds to refresh every time I
deleted
~}an
~}item from the graph.
~}
~}My next step is to convince mgmt to let me upgrade to IE6 and Notes
~}6..maybe even Windows 2003.
