hrmmm. So a DL385G2, dual-proc/dual-core with 16GB of ram and 8 SAS
disks with a Smart Array P800 w/ 512MB of write cache would be helpful?

I've got quite a few such machines, along with larger DL585s. I can't
make one externally available immediately but I could set one up to do
benchmark runs and to dump the results to a public site. What I don't
have atm is alot of time though, of course. Are there scripts and
whatnot to get such a set up going quickly?

I'll also investigate actually making one available to the community.

Thanks,

Stephen
