Message-ID: <313@pucc-h> Date: Tue, 27-Sep-83 18:43:37 EDT Article-I.D.: pucc-h.313 Posted: Tue Sep 27 18:43:37 1983 Date-Received: Wed, 28-Sep-83 21:58:57 EDT Organization: Purdue University Computing Center Lines: 6 Why is everyone so hepped up on the VAX (and on U**x thereon)? With a load average as low as 4, our VAX runs like a stuck pig! If the load average tops 10 (no pun intended, for you larger DEC system fans), the VAX runs like a DEAD pig! Give me a mainframe, every time. -- Jeff Sargent/pur-ee!pucc-h:aeq
