Re: I need a solution

That's a pretty tall order. 10 000 files a second. Do they just need the
same date / time stamp?

The problem is that I want these files updated in only one second. Sure, the system must be reliable and I don't have to lose any data. The things that I can consider are: creating some threads to work in the same time and a good hardware (I mean a machine with 4 processors, 4 GB of memory). Also, I want a backup system using RAID for duplicating the data.
