Memory Upgrades --
Since the new hardware configuration involves 8 ultrasparc CPUs for the
production cluster instead of 24 Sparc/1000 CPUs, some concern has developed
over the amount of memory per CPU. This was resolved for the production
cluster in this discussion, which concluded that doubling the memory per CPU
was prudent and not very expensive, so that the configuration is now seen as
two machines with 4 CPUs each and 512 MBytes of high speed memory each.
It was not clear whether similar upgrades were needed for the analysis
and data base machines. T. Evans agreed to review the needs with B. Narron
and issue a report.
