[Xitami] WWW Xitami

[Control-Freak]

I'm really bad.  I run xitami (web server and ftp service) in the background
on a ME machine that is constantly being used as a multi-track digital audio
workstation.  Most people would call me an idiot, but until i get time to
dig enough parts out of the closet to make something like a pentium pro 200
MHz dedicated server, it works just fine for me.  It crashes every once in a
great while, but no more than it did when it was a dedicated DAW.  Running
Xitami in the background doesn't seem to impede performance at all.  And
some of the files i serve are over 10 meg.

 But, I do have to admit that I am running a AMD Athelon 1.4GHz 233 FSB with
256Meg DDR PC2100 RAM off a 7200 RPM ATA66 HD.  But most of those resources
get eaten up by the DAW side of things anyway (hence the crashes).  But even
as a daw/ web server, its far more stable than my p.o.s. dedicated office
computer (Dell Inspiron 3800 MPIII750 with 256 PC100 RAM - Dell, please come
home.) that crashes 2 or 3 times a day due to eaten up resources - even with
a memory manager (AnalogX's MaxMem).
