What Server Specs do YOU run Koha on?
Hiya folks, Recently we've had a lot of people ask about recommended server specs for Koha. This is a tough question to answer because it comes loaded with assumptions about the size of the collection, transaction load, etc. So I was wondering if those of you who are running Koha in your libraries could just post a quick email to the list saying how large your collection is, number of transactions, what server specs you use (proc speed, RAM, disk space, etc.), and how the performance has been for you ... and then we can compile that as part of the FAQ.

Collection - 55000, average transactions (issue/return) 500 per day, Production Server Specs - CentOS 4, 1.8 Gig Proc, 1GB RAM, 80 GB HDD. Perfomance fair with Koha 2.2.9 (which in production) - excellent with Koha 3 with lower specs in (still in development). Production server is not exclusive to Koha. ----------------------------------- Bernard Shiundu Systems Librarian Strathmore University Library

We are just getting involved with Koha and are not in production yet, which is why we are starting with version 3.0 alpha. We have 8 Mac minis (Intel duo core processors with 1GB of RAM) each with 60GB hard drives that were purchased for another project that ended abrubtly. I have installed Ubuntu 7.10 on two of these machines so far and have successfully brought up one of the machines. I still need to do some tweaks on a second machine to get Zebra to work properly.

Hello, At CCFLS our server has 80gb disk space with dual 2.0ghz processors and 6gb memory. Presently we have about 120,000 items in the collection between two libraries with about 800 circs per day total. Server performance has been good. Occasionally we experience slow responsiveness, but that seems to be due to either a slow Internet connection at the branch library or occasional issues with our thin clients.
