All,
We currently have setup, Dual P4-Xeon 2.2G machines running 2.4.19,
with 2GB of RAM.
Is there any performance reasons to keep the idle=poll in the append
line? I have not seen any degraded performance with the option, but some of
our subs are having performance issues with it in.

TIA,

The Box Said "Requires Windows 95 or Better", so I installed Linux!
