Splash Server System Performance

This section explains possible hardware conﬁgurations that will enhance the

capabilities of the Splash Server.

Managing System Extensions for 24 MB Servers

If your Power Macintosh uses the minimum required system memory (24 MB),

turn off system extensions that use up system memory and are not needed to run the

Splash Server application. To do this:

1. In the MacOS Finder, point to Control Panels in the Apple Menu, then choose

Extensions Manager in the list of Macintosh control panels.

2. Click to uncheck all system extensions except the following:

■ Apple CD-ROM

■ AppleScript

■ AppleShare

■ Energy Saver Extension

■ File Sharing Extension

■ Find File Extension

■ Finder Scripting Extension

■ Foreign File Access

■ LaserWriter 8

■ NetWare Client

■ Splash driver extension

IMPORTANT:

Before turning off the “Energy Saver” extension be sure to set

the “Put the system to sleep whenever it’s inactive” setting to NEVER. If not,

the server will cycle down during idle time, and will not wake until someone

presses a key or clicks the mouse button.
