I have replaced all the memory with fresh 4x512MB REGISTRED ECC RAM, and it has been running stable for 8 days now. I also replaced the SCSI cables. 2.4 is not an option. > Does Oracle for Linux us pthreads or the 'clone()' system call? I am not really sure.

Its to critical for our business. (The database contains all stock quotes for Oslo, Stockholm, Frankfurt, NYSE, AMEX and NASDAQ stock exchanges and they are updated 24/7. I can only bring it down in weekends, and only if it really important.) However I have access to a few other dual boxen. (2x550, 2x350, 2x166 and a dual SparcStation 20). I can run your program on them with stock 2.2.19 SMP if you want me to. -- Med vennlig hilsen Johan Seland for Net Fonds ASA
