Hi Chris.
We have a Moodle split between two servers, one app/file server with the
database on another server, both fairly pokey machines. We're
experiencing no particular performance issues but I am always looking to
tweak the system. Do you think getting another server (even a virtual
one) solely running cron is of particular beneift?
Paul.
