No wonder it's slow!
Are you sure you've got your dimensioning calculations right?
You obviously don't know what you are talking about.
Desktop PC's are awfully overpowered and can not be compared to dual Xeon machines with server architecture boards. At my Co-lo we run loads heavier than FT on machines with lower specs. Besdies that, desktop PC's run Windows and this server runs linux, MAJOR difference.
