couldn't you just replace those 9g with something huge?

i've always wanted to combine a solbourne with an auspex, but i rather
suspect the result would be worse than a solbourne alone.  my one
experience - a three-month contract - was so unreliable i got to know
the fs man very well[0].  and they never had a chassis with enough
slots to max cpus -and- memory.

got relief with a sun 4k.
