Re: How many consoles can conserver support??

I have two Conserver installations, one managing nearly 1800 lines and 
the other nearly 1200.  All lines are telnet-based (to Cyclades/Avocent 
terminal concentrators) on a private network, mostly at 9600 or 38400 baud.

We replaced our old SPARCstation (Solaris 8) when it started to get a 
little pokey at 800-900 lines.  Our current systems are early 64-bit 
Xeon (2-core) and aren't working very hard at all.  I don't expect any 
need for further upgrades for some time to come.

Hope this helps,
S
