We are running 4.2BSD on two VAX 11/730's. They are basically a one- or
two-user machine. VERY SLOW. Not much disk in the default versions.
Whatever you do, do NOT get the dual-rl02 version! Get the r80, both
for speed and disk space. We are running with only 1 Mb of memory --
hopefully it performs better with 2M. To give you an idea of how slow it is,
it takes us about 30 seconds to log in. I tracked the speed problem down
to where login runs the crypt subroutine. Takes about 20 seconds to encrypt
a password string (sigh)!
