A caching nameserver isn't a terribly memory-intensive unit. In the past, I've run quite peppy systems on a few hundred megs of RAM. I expect the 207M is all the system actually needs. Even if you figure 1K per entry, that's still 200,000 names it has cached. -- Bill Moran http://www.potentialtech.com
