Unfortunatley the realservers all different specs(bought as and when
needed),
some have >ram <cpu the newer ones tend to have <ram >cpu. As i
understand it
WLC read my initial weight the dynamically changes it dependant on load.
Im no programmer but surely it wouldnt be that difficult to use a combo
of the
uptime and free commands instead of just uptime.
