I just got our new Mac mini = server set up. This is fully maxed out on the Apple store - 2.6GHz i7, = 16 GB RAM, dual 250GB SSD drives, $1999 US.

Set = up with WebDNA Server 6.2, and the first thing I did was pull out the = old WebDNA speed test:

http://www.euca.us/= webdnatest/show_speed.html

The previous top = score was held by "Core2Duo E8400 = @3.0ghz, 2GB Ram, 400GB SATA HDD, CentOS 5.3 (Final), Cicada 6.2 Apache = 2.2.13"

This mini will be = replacing a 2.5 year old Mac mini server, spec'ed as 2.66GHz Core 2 Duo, = 4 GB RAM, dual 7200 RPM 500GB disks.

New = mini= Old miniOld = Record Holder
Total = Ticks= 151= 191= 166=
% Improvement= --= 26%= 10%

In these results, the = first 2 seconds of the test are simply a 2 second delay used to see how many = ticks are in 2 seconds, and has no bearing on the system's performance. = Subtracting out those 2 seconds, the results are much more = dramatic:

= New miniOld miniOld = Record Holder
Test-Only = Ticks= 30= 79= 44
% = Improvement= --= 163%= 47%

The "Test-Only Ticks" = results subtract out the first 121-122 ticks of the test, which is = simply a 2 second delay used to see how many ticks are in 2 = seconds, and has no bearing on the system's = performance.

I expect the performance = difference will be even greater than this when used with very large = databases, due to the speed of the SSD, and with multiple simultaneous = requests, due to the additional processing = cores.

So far, very pleased. We have some = upcoming projects that will involve millions of database records, and = this should provide enough performance improvement to make that = feasible.
