FYI, I /do/ run all of those services you mentioned in a previous post here, and they get hammered all day long (even with the filtering/throttling/temp banning in place). I don't remember it has ever crashing due to those services being overwhelmed or anything. A random bug or a segfault maybe, but that has always been able to be found, addressed and fixed.

I just don't think Windows (Home/Pro) itself was ever built to be a server. On the other hand, and not to seem like I'm shitting on Windows or anything, I have seen, heard, and read about plenty of /actual/ Windows Server setups running just fine. I imagine they probably take a bunch of the desktop background tasks out of the equation, which could come in to play with hosting a server.

Regards,
Nick
