With regard to questions on xen-dev about memory and disk,
i saw the following advert:

http://www.hyperossystems.co.uk/07042003/products.htm#hyperosHDIIproduct

in short it's a 5 1/4" bay you can put in RAM dimms and use them as a harddrive.
It has reboot-memory and 160-minutes-power-off memory.

They advert it at 80x faster than harddisk so, as swap space, or tmp-space
on domU (proxy-cache, mail/spam/virus handling etc etc etc) it would be
maybe worth the investment. What do you guys think?


------------------------------------------------

Costs:

It costs Euro 290 ($380) incl. tax. , which is deductable for companies here. (19%)
Euro 243 = $320

ram per GB (400Mhz) sells here at:
E90 = $108  (exl tax: E75/$90).

So you would need 1 or 2 gig's
which brings the total price to:
1G )  E 380 / $ 456
        E 319 / $ 383 (ex tax)
2 G ) E 470 / $ 564
        E 395 / $ 474
