First, thanks for the kind comments. Second, the system is a 937LX and we
use it for daily cobol/vplus development. So while you are accessing pages
off our web server you are competing against multiple simultaneous compiles,
both from cobol and of course, vplus (argh!).

We also use the HP3k for our in-house problem tracking system, but this
doesn't have much load.

QWEBS logs wall time/cpu time/net-io for all of its activities so you are
able to determine what is happening and the corresponding load being put
on your system. We have been very pleased with its low impact on our
environment.

In our case, our Internet connection (56k frame relay) is probably the
limiting factor in speed of access.
