Building a web server: Installing the right software
We wanted this machine to be as lean as possible. There is only so much memory and processing power to go around. Remember, our machine has 3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i7 processor with 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 memory. We also wanted as much of that space and power to be used for serving up our web applications. However, we also wanted to have an additional option for editing any code files, in addition to vim.
