In the Ultrix Engineering Group, a number of 58** machines are used as
the
primary production machines. The MUP should have addressed any problems
that
have been found/fixed to date, but with any major release, you should
expect
a couple of problems to sleeze out to the customer level.

The result of an uptime request for one of the 5840 machines yeilds the
following:

 12:46pm  up 4 days, 16 mins,  56 users,  load average: 2.54, 2.66,
2.07

The result of a 'df | grep : | wc for the same machine yeilds the
following:

      96     576    8250

As you can see, UEG makes pretty extensive use of the 58** machines
through
normal use...
