Hello, and happy Friday....

Attn:  QUIPU users.

I would be most interested in receiving some information about how
you use QUIPU, along the following lines (for each DSA you run):

Master or slave DSA:
Hardware/software where DSA lives:
How much disk, how much swap does DSA use:
Number of entries in DIT:
Number of EDB files:
Number of levels in DIT:
Percentage tree modified by user updates/typical operating interval (*):
Percentage of tree modified by bulk updates:
How bulk updates are performed:
Mean time between DSA reboots (MTF):
Mean time between user updates:
Mean time between bulk updates:
Mean time to reboot DSA (MTR):
Mean time required to apply bulk update:
Mean time needed for user updates:
'Most used' DUA (dish, fred, your_own):
and finally, does your DSA crash, and if so, how often?

(*) i.e. how much of the tree do users change in 10 minutes? in 10 hours?
in 10 days? etc....

Thanks muchly!  When I've gathered sufficient responses (please reply
by e-mail to pww@bnr.ca), I'll post some sort of summary.

TTFN, TGIF, etc...,
