    Hi,

    I was reading this article about tuning OS X: https://www.afp548.com/article.php?story=20060905144209269

    And it mentions that the universal version of AFP is much improved. I have access to an install of 10.4.10 on an Intel Xserve. Could updating AFP on a PPC server be as simple as copying the AppleFileServer binary and restarting the service? Or do I really need to do a full/fresh install of Universal OS X?

    Ugh. That isn’t good news. I’m having some serious scaling problems and I was hoping that I could just update AFP. The server gets really bogged down when there are a lot of connections. Even after implementing most of the tuning tips. Seems like the server can’t handle much over 90 connections. This is a dual G5 Xserve with RAID (external) with 5GB of RAM.
