WebCatalog on my Dual Pentium 200MHz (super-slow cheap IDE hard drive) queued 5000 emails in 1.6 minutes while simultaneously serving graphics and static html files. It took longer than that to trash those same files using NT Explorer. Normally I would recommend WebTen with a G3 in situations like this (for DB search speeds, G3 beats similar Pentium), except for the fact that you're writing so many files to the MacOS filesystem.We are also improving multithreading performance for the next release.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
