Wait, correct me if I'm wrong, but the more powerful CPU is in your
development server?
My understanding is that a Celeron is a chop'd up PII ... my first
recommendation here is that if you are running a *server*, get rid of that
Celeron ... from what I've been told about the difference, Celeron is a
great, cheap chip for using in a desktop environment (its what I use at
home), but shy away from it in a server environment, as the speed
reduction of the reduced cache alone will hurt things ...
