Subject: 750 configuration

We have an 11/750 with the System Industries UNIBUS controller
and CDC 9766 drives (300Mb), but may upgrade to SI's MASSBUS
and controller for the /750 which they say will be available here
(Toronto) in July. We're running at most about 32 (student) users
doing things like lisping, running big, slow homebrew compilers,
using compatibility mode, and the like. We only have 2Mb of memory
(I forget whose) but use Able DH/DM's (we have one DZ which we try to
avoid using for high-speed lines).

On the other hand, performance can get pretty slow (load averages around 25).
Usually performance is good (load average is usually well under 10).
