Wow. That was a very thorough post. Kudos to Lew.
Don't hang me (or flame me) for this, but some Microsoft based speculation.
Assuming Multi-tasking servers, no matter the OS, are always busy and
drive read heads always seeking, are utilities like Executive
Software's Diskeeper Utility (for Windows servers) just a scam? I
have some customers who had software vendors tout this stuff to be
nearly as important as anti-virus software.
