What sort of machines are you running that on?
Ancient ones. 2 hosts on the left have 2x Xeon E5420 (Harpertown) each (8c8t total per host), right side has 1x E5520 (Nehalem-EP) (4c8c total). We rewrote the entire application and optimized the critical path to make it work out. New hardware is in the pipeline.

Nice. How much RAM, storage and what kind of NICs?
-
4G and 8G on the old hosts, 24G (and some VMs running eating some of that) on the newer one. Storage is just a pair of plain old SAS disks in RAID1 per host. Standard 1Gbps copper NICs. It's really all boring old stuff.

Is the app you're running publicly available?
-
Nope, though open sourcing parts of it is on my TODO list.
