perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

["Koch, Brian" <>]

2Gb of RAM seems pretty slim. One of ours has 4GB and 3.7GB is used. I would 
not skimp on RAM, unless you want to manually upgrade it yourself.

Subject: Re: [perfsonar-user] Anyone with LIVA X2 experience?

I don't have any personal experience with the X2, but I did a little 
presentation at ENCITE a few weeks ago where I believe someone had mentioned 
that they were using that platform successfully, even with CentOS. I wouldn't 
use this as anything more than an anecdotal reference from my part, however.
