think that some people could find more adult ways of expressing their
opinions.

I'm still of the opinion that available memory is a major part of the
problem. Given the newness of drupal7, I doubt that anyone has really
checked out the performance/bugs when running with a minimal memory
configuration. Either the problems are endemic with Drupal7 (memory
leaks) , or they will disappear when running with more memory. I seem
to remember reading that Chris Fedde experienced a lot fewer problems
with drupal7 and more memory. The more I read about drupal7, the more
I believe that it is indeed a memory hog (confirmed by many drupal
experts).

Cost is indeed important, but we need more memory if we continue down
the chosen path. See you there.
