it makes me sad to see you leaving the pool, and I really hope that you'll try to run SKS again in a few years, when the relevant problems might be solved and bugs have been fixed. See you; don't leave us forever! :)

This is on the biggest, most powerful server I've ever owned, a
relatively new system--not a VPS.
If I have to give sks its own system, then I can't run it anyway. I'm
happy to be generous with what I have, but when it comes to buying a
system just for sks, that's more than I can do.
Thanks!
