Re: PASE experts wanted

Charles,

I don't know what processor feature of 270 Jon has (mine is a 22A2) but 
I have 2 Gb and I was running this guy at 100% this morning with PHP 
calls from PASE.  I noticed that whenever I started my blog instance it 
would run slow and the CPU would be pegged at 100%.  I had a bunch of 
ZENDCOREAP jobs running, each at 6-8%.  A little investigating showed 
that I was getting hammered by trackback spam which I had failed to put 
adequate controls on. Adding some filters to my firewall took care of it 
and now the CPU is idling at 10%.

The point is that the PHP/PASE jobs did take up almost all available CPU 
so I am pretty sure that my 270 only has a single core.  Jon's is 
probably similar.
