17th Amateur Series Division 8

[Graham Banks]

Have you also observed that Plisk is claiming almost all memory (running at
either 100% or 75%) ie pondering on your quad?

Best,

No. I have ponder turned off.

Cheers,
Graham.

Yes, I know. I am testing plisk 0.1.2 x64 with ponder off.
But it uses all the remaining free cores.

Best,

It's okay here. I think I noticed that problem with an earlier version, but this one seems okay. I'm using 32-bit.

Cheers,
Graham.

Both on the top deserved the promotion, I'd say.

Any supporters?
