> Why it is called "Low Performance"??
>
Too distincuish it from the high performance edition in Suite 2009.
Some marketing material on the differences and why they are important
will be available in a few weeks.
The short explanation is that CVS Suite 2009 edition of CVSNT Server
uses a new architecture that is faster but also uses a manager process
that is not open source. This provides:
* reduced lag on client performance while servers start
* allows the server processes to share information to improve
performance
It is not possible to use CVSNT 2.8 without the manager process.
