RE: Recommendations for a production svn server

While this is still arguably the prevailing "wisdom", I've watched my
uptimes on my Windows machines go up substantially over the last 2-3
years: especially for server machines. My WinXP Subversion server is
unavailable far more often for dump/load reasons than anything Windows
related. Even my main XP workstation usually goes 30-60 days without a
reboot and I put it through a lot of abuse. That's a far cry from the
nearly daily reboots for NT workstations I had before. Is it as good as
*nix uptimes of 1-2 years, etc.? No. However, if you're working with an
internal server that only gets used Mon-Fri and you can schedule things
like Windows Updates for weekends (once a month), the uptime/stability
shouldn't be a problem.
