Thanks in advance

apache has never been a real performance issue with me. I'm attaching some scripts that collect performance data with sar and can be ported to run on Linux or HP-UX Itanium.

If apache is an issue, it will show up.

Thanks, I am try to compare the apache performance between an Intel Xeon or P4 to the Itanium. I need to justify why we should spend money on the Itanium. If the performance is the same, the the Xeon or P4 would be cheaper.
