    I guess I am weird..... I store very little data.

    I stopped storing movies/tv because I have been able to find whatever movies/tv I want on Netflix. Hulu Plus, etc. Anything I can't find on streaming, I can buy on Amazon. I don't watch much TV or Movies anyways.

    I don't feel the need to store music with many of other good options (Youtube, Music Services, etc.)

    I don't store a ton of photos.

    I have a huge colletion of PDF's and eBook, but I am not storing them.......

    I do store ISO's in onedrive.

    I do store personal documents (encrypted) - tax returns, etc

    I think you're probably normal. I'm the same. I don't know how much I have but I suspect it's around 100gb - nearly all of which is photos and music.

    You've made your point @scottalanmiller, and talked me off the ledge (mostly).

    Am I worried about my ISP, no more than I have been since the confirmation of Prism. Though considering problems like the ones recently found in the WiFi used by hotels, etc that allow attackers to completely take over those devices, using security/encryption everyone should just be the norm... not having to worry about setting up my own VPN termination point, or buying someone else's would be pretty nice.

    My guess is that some combination of MySQL and Apache were unable to cache all of their content. You had memory being maxed out, but not over taxed, so those subsystems were not "expanding into free memory" to leverage RAM. So they were running from disk instead of from memory.

    The additional of an extra CPU helps too. Rarely do workloads run ideally from a single thread. Having two threads lets there be a lot less context switching (a LOT less) while getting better cache hits.

    Ok, that makes a lot of sense.

    It's 120v most people call it 110v for some reason.

    Because historically 110 was used a lot prior to the national 120 standard.

    Related: most of the rest of the world has standardized on 230V.

    Yeah but that's been a very long time. That hasn't been since people only used lighting in their house. and it was even originally 100v then moved to 110v. That was long before the time of multiple phase distribution.

    I want mine for databases, software enhancement & design for websites....etc And what ever else I tickles my fancy. 🙂

    The NTG lab has a Redis and MongoDB cluster. And not multiple instances on a single VM, which you can do in a pinch, but three dedicated VMs each running one instance of the DB so it is a real cluster with failover that can be tested.

    I'd like to play around with it sometime.

    @JaredBusch Correct. This has been the one downside for AD Connect if you have users that frequent the office. Traffic is forced across the Pertino interface. 430 will allow you to designate "zones" where devices use local routes instead.

    I like the idea of making wifi available to customers anywhere their other customers have access... but pay so someone else can have access? HELL NO!

    Like you said dealing with double NAT would be bad enough... but having to pay.. ummm NO!

    Well the ICON is light years ahead in hardware specs, so I'm sure that has a lot to do with it.

    I honestly could keep my Icon another 2 years or so...it is THAT good (speed and stable wise)...I totally love the phone...I don't think Verizon will pass on the next Flagship Windows Phone (excuse me, Windows for Phone, or however we may refer to it)...but if they do, I'm good with the Icon...the camera is amazing...

    Lol, the only time this site gets heavy traffic is over controversial topics and most of them have to deal with AJ. It's really no secret and everybody can see it. If you can't see it, then you aren't paying attention.

    Hmm. I Don't know if you could join both a Linux file server to both a windows domain and Openldap. But I bet there is a way.

    You should really reformat that script - add some metadata for context based help, parameters, etc. - it would make it a lot easier to use.
