Subject:      Re: VM Storage Sizes for Shared DB server id's

We use 5 megs for our cms logon ids our batch Ids and power users use 8meg.
 Probem is that the
increased memory conflicts with profs mail.

    We're using a 15meg VM for our server ID, but we have LOTS
of wierd stuff on it... I'd recommend 8 megs, based on some
of my personal experience.

    Understand that a lot of this depends on your local system
installation, therefore one person's views on this may not
be 'the way'...
