[Orca-users] Orca dying on the vine?

[Hudes, Dana]

Interested yes obsessed no.
Throw enough hardware at the problem and it goes away: 2 core PIV server
slow? Throw 4x quad core Xeon at it.
4GB not enough? Try 16 GB.
 
this isn't new. I've consolidated numerous systems which were using
10-20% of an E10K domain (4GB, 4x400mhz Ultra II cpu) into a single 5240
(128 x 1.4Mhz sun4v more-or-less ultraIII+ cores, 32 GB RAM).

Allen,
 
I'm still hoping to use ORCA with Solaris 10.  I have it installed using
OpenCSW.
 
My thought is that system admins today are not as interested in what's
going in their servers.

So, with the rather low level of activity both on the mailing lists and
development for Orca and SE, have we gotten to the point where Orca/SE
are pretty much dead? They've been great tools over the years, and I
haven't seen anything that gives the same level of insight.

If dead, what are folks using out there for replacement?

Thanks!
