... arXiv.org . ... Although great progress has been made in modelling the disk with radiative transfer models able to reproduce the spectral energy distribution (SED) of Herbig Ae stars, the constraints brought by images have not been yet fully exploited. Here, we are interested in checking if these new observational imaging constraints can be accounted for by predictions based on existing models of passive centrally irradiated hydrostatic disks made to fit the SEDs of the Herbig Ae stars. ...

Below is a set of newsgroup posts made by an engineer from DEC in response to queries about how to modify DEC's Digital Unix OS for more heavily loaded web sites. ... Our experience (running such Web servers as altavista.digital.com and www.digital.com ) is that there is one important kernel tuning knob to adjust in order to get good performance on V3.2C. You need to patch the kernel global variable "somaxconn" (use dbx -k to do this) from its default value of 8 to something much larger. ...
