At the moment I am running 8 computers (including the computer running FS). I
am thinking of reducing the number of computers on the network to reduce
the noise, heat, the time spent getting all the computers runing and simply
increasing space.
I am just wondering whether there is a 'sweet spot' in the number of
computers to run?
Would the performance be the same,let's say by having just 5 conputers on the
network, but each running more programmes? By having fewer computers on
the network, would this speed up communication between the programmes?
Whereabouts is the trade off?
I am tentativley thinking of substituting 3 computers for 1 lap top running a
wireless connection and a number of programmes which at the moment are
being run by a dedicated computer.
