30 Gig 7200 RPM HDD with 192Meg Ram
this is RedHat 7.0 with 2.4.2 kernel
PS: before you ask why the upgrade
my response would be why not

imho if it ain't broke don't fix it. i've been running ext3 with 7.2 and i find it to be faster than ext2. if u'r server is getting hammered then i would recommend the upgrade otherwise i'd say leave it.
i've only noticed the diff. under high usage. bearly noticeable in normal use. just my opinion.
ext3 is it slower ????
