We are currently considering the purchase of a "supermini".  One of
the primary uses of the machine will be as an AVS server in a
distributed environment.  We are currently considering a Convex C3220
with 512 Mbytes of memory and a Cray YMP-EL also with 512 Mbytes of
memory.  Display will be done over the network on Stardent GS series
machines or IBM powerstations.  I would appreciate getting feedback
from people that are using either of these machines in a distributed
environment for visualization.  I would especially like to know about
performance, pitfalls, etc.  We use AVS mostly for display of data
generated by finite difference and finite element codes.
Please reply via email.   Thanks in advance.
