GOLD RUSH SERVER UPGRADE FOR GRLINKER AND GRX

The Colorado Alliance of Research Libraries is pleased to announce a major server upgrade for its openURL link resolver (Gold Rush Linker) and its XML Gateway (GRX).  The new server features a dual quad-processor motherboard (8 processors in all) and replaces a single processor device.  The new server will be able to handle increased system load with faster response time.   This is especially important as Gold Rush has seen a substantial increase in new customers during the last year.
