UMich has a bit over 400K principals in our KDC. Doing a
quick glance over the last month, the KDC that nearly 
everyone talks to issued between 2.3 and 5.3 million 
tickets per day.

It's a Dell 1750 that really should be replaced, not
because it lacks any capacity, but because it is 
getting old.
