Our production environment runs ActiveState perl, NT4 SP6a, Domino 5.0.7> and a host of supporting tools. Perl is not an excuse to go Linux. Go to Linux if your app benefits from being on a *nix box. I wouldn't go to Linux for security. I guess it's the exploit of the week thing on Linux apps in bugtraq that has me spooked. Then again I'm paranoid and run OpenBSD for a secure platform. > My company is currently running 4 Domino servers on NT and we've noticed > that they really should be restarted every night because of memory leaks, > or whatever, but a Domino server on NT never seems very stable for very > long. I'm not sure this is Lotus's fault :-) Where I work, our production WinNT 4 SP6a servers appear to have a MTBF of 30+ days (some of them have gone months). Something is probably wrong with your installation / configuration. Consider whether the agents are soaking everything up or if it really is Domino. You should expect Domino to consume several hundred megs of ram for it's database cache. I recall ours typically ran at about 3-400 megs. Anyhow, so now someone should pipe up on how exactly Domino on Linux is a good idea since I've been so down on it.
