Re: Hardware Recommendation

50 developers doesn't say much. The kind of info you need to think about is:
- What repository size?
- How much activity? i.e. average commit size and frequency.
- Is the box going to do only svn, or is it going to do mailing lists
(svn commit emails for instance), bug tracker maybe .. or even tinderbox?

I run svn on a P3 800, repository is roughly 1Gb .. we have around 8
commitingt users and public anonymous read. That's about 30 revisions /
week. It does mailing list and bug tracking (mailing list has around 300
subscribees) .. load barely goes above 1 in normal usage.

About SMP machines .. in unix world, SMP is always a good thing. I'd
rather have a dual Xeon 1.2Ghz than a single Xeon 2.4 ..

my 2c :-)
