Just a query on the super server and multi processors... Is it only a
windows problem?

If running linux, should I still be looking at classic server if I want to
use multiple CPUs?

Regards
Colin

You are right but
a) affects Supersever only
b) it is recommended to use one processor for FB SS and another for other
tasks. SS still is'nt optimized to be used on 2 and more processors.

Classic successfully uses as many processors as you have - each connect
have own server process and this is OS business to share resources.
