Re: But with Foster running on workstation and server apps

For streaming operations such as disk and network i/o, the Bandwidth of even PC133 is quite capable of keeping up with any SHV server's needs. So any limitations will still come from executing server applications doing things like database queries or jumping around in indexes while checking files for viruses. If P4's prefetch keeps loading the bus with 2 to 4 reads for every one called for by the software, it will require at least two time the memory bandwidth in order to provide the same performance as a PIII or Athlon.
