Operating Systems supported

Mac OSX - 10.4 to 10.4.10, Intel and PPC platforms

  • Fedora 5 (kernel: 2.6.15)
  • Fedora 7 (kernel: 2.6.21)

 Windows XP, 2000, 2003, Vista (32bit and 64bit)

RAM

128MB recommended minimum however this will vary depending on what you are doing. FlyingAnt server itself uses very little memory (<5MB). The memory use will increase when performing a search, this increase can be significant, but temporary, in the case of large indexes.

CPU

Pentium 100Mhz recommended minimum. FlyingAnt uses very little CPU resources, however the Search functionality and Web browser itself may run slowly on such an old CPU.
