This leads to a question for the current MUD that I'm working on:
Given that modern operating systems know about swapping, and that
computers nowadays have like a minimum of 64MB of memory for the
most part, is there any real need to have the server be diskbased?
If so, at what point does that need arise? I mean, if a 100 player
server takes up 128MB of swap, sure, that's Bad, but what if a 10
000 player server takes up 128MB of swap? Does that change things?
Are there other reasons to make it disk based than simple memory
usage?
