Re: Game Servers
I havent done any real tests. I cant bring myself to run JUST dominions on a server. I have two servers.
One old junky one that runs a large MUD named Shadowdale. And also runs about a dozen small blitz games of Dom3. It also does a bunch of cron work (generating maps and such)
The hot new server is running web service for a dozen domains, and email for about a hundred users. Plus many other services (ftp, irc, etc). There are 5 large Dom3 games running there. Three them are 1500 provinces and 79 nations.
Both machines would be put to shame by any new desktop anyone has gotten in the last year.
