A /dedicated/ server is *way* over the top as I pointed out in my
previous private message to you. The current site regens all 7000+ pages
in a few minutes for example. I agree though that we could use a little
more horsepower though - I'll see if I can setup something on one of my
boxes here over the next few days.
