Hi Harry, Will the new LDM server be just for the level II data? Looking at thelma currently, I see no spikes over 1GB/hour..so depending how much data you want to keep in queue..our general "rule of thumb" is at least one hours worth of data in queue, ideally two hours. Sooo, if a stand alone machine, probably a 2GB queue, if it is the same as for other feeds..maybe a 6-8GB queue. Have a favor to ask: Can you place an allow for IDS|DDPLUS for: Moscow State University machine name: val.inm.ras.ru (83.149.207.80) Contact: Dr Val N Gloukov address@hidden We found it quicker to go west to Russia than east, so you became our logical choice.
