Can you and others on this list briefly describe your hardware platform for this? I am assuming this is not running on an old 486 that is lying around in your office :) Do you feel that the searching is processor intensive and may be best suited for a load balanced infrastructure? I am implementing my pilot using eXist which stores the XML Database in B Trees which from my knowledge is an in memory data structure so therefor the machine would need lots of ram however I am curious as to the processing requirements. Thanks, you guys rock! Andrew
