[mapserver-users] speed performance question

[Ed McNierney]

Joe -

I think the problem is in definig "heavy load tests".  I don't see any of the commercial Internet map server providers publishing detailed hardware requirements (although I may have missed something) because it's a very complicated question.  That's probably why there's a lack of replies.

Do you have a specific set of requirements in mind?  If so, let us know and we'll help.  Creating a document describing all possible hardware requirements for all possible sets of performance criteria is a massive task, and isn't likely to happen any time soon.

Greetings,
    What is the real story on hardware requirements?  Is anyone putting
mapserver through heavy load tests?  I have read two threads in the
mailing list archives requesting the same.  There are no replies.

   Any information would be helpful.

Cordially,
