Suppose it depends what is being done. I believe there are still benefits to be had by offloading PhysX to a dedicated card and leave the GPU for rendering.
Also, if the machine was folding it would help.
Maybe should just go straight to dual gtx1080ti SLI and stop fannying about! Now there's an idea

Seriously? I'm thinking about pumping up my poor old Elf II from 1978 from 4k to 8-16mb.

Paging. I don't want to build a complete MMU, so the simplest way should be to use registers (latches, not CPU registers ) to extend the address bus by 8 more address bits and divide up the physical address space into several 16k banks. Each of those banks would have its own register, so that the processor can switch the page that is mapped into the 16k block can be selected by writing its address into the register.

Of course, I forgot that 1802 already has a 16 bit address bus (thought it had only 8 and was already paged) so it costs only a level of paging to upgrade it.
Two levels of paging would be a freaking lot to manage IMHO and I thought you had some more magic up to your sleeve

That's right the 1802 has only 8 address lines, but it multiplexes the 16 bit address on those address lines during its bus cycles. Just add another register and latch the upper half of the 16 bit address when the timing signal TPA is high. The 1802 was designed for compact small computers without the need of much discrete logic. That's why it has some features that are more like a microcontroller today and why it was used in many space probes, satellites and even the Space Shuttle. The need for address latch, however, always was a pain.

If it is your budget you should upgrade, because of the perfomance and better energy effiency (new chips with less heat). The old GPU you can sell (for instance on ebay).
I like the Asus "ti" series of nvidia because the have a higher performance 
Press F1 for help or google it.

I don't know what you use it for: if you need rendering for professional reasons then 1080 is the best chocie. I have a 1060 OC, it costs way less than the 1080 but it's astonishingly powerful and when (not if) you will have to upgrade it you will have a much lower sustained cost.
I game with it and it can run The Witcher 3 and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided at FullHD/Ultra graphics without a single stutter.

Maybe find a used GTX690 and run with your old in sli? Cheap and might reduce rendering times.

I analyzed every book ever mentioned on Stack Overflow. Here are the most popular ones.[^]
At the bottom of the post, he writes:
Right after I published {his website.com} I had a huge crowd checking out my web site. Apache couldn’t serve for more than 500 visitors at the same time, so I quickly set up Nginx and switched to it on the way. I was really surprised when real-time visitors shot up to 800 at same time.
I'm just thinking. Ability to handle concurrent clients- Doesn't it depend on the server hardware config & OS capabilities to the most part? Why should Apache "have" a limitation of 500+ requests.
I'm not sure I could be influenced by the Scale-up/out things of the cloud that we do today. But just 500 requests limitation for a well reputed server like Apache sounds wrong. May be he chose a mid-end h/w config for Apache.

500 concurrent users and 500 concurrent requests are two different things.

It's likely because that Nginx is event based (epoll) and Apache is mainly thread based. The former can utilize the hardware more efficiently than the later in IO heavy applications ...
|

As Shuqian Ying mentioned in the above comment the Apache is mainly thread based.
Due to this it's actually vulnerable to Slowloris, which is a DoS attack that requires a very small amount of resources from the attacker to achieve DoS on the target.

I'm sorry to tell you this but you've posted your question in the lounge. All the regulars here have actually shed physical form so this is a real lounge to us. We live as part of the internet so we have access to all online information at the point we need it so our essays write themselves. We don't need any help with that thanks.

you will never imagine the surprise
on that night in the wasteland sand
of Cydonia near Arandus Crater when
i came across spuds with alien eyes
these unsmiling eyes were not Irish,
and, they'd never make a Happy Meal;
as they began to eat my DNA, i said:
on Earth you'd make a gourmand dish
when their feast on me's over, they
complained my brain wasn't as salty
as those delicious wheels and gears
they munched on from the Mars Rover
scientists forgot how nature abhors
crossing vegetables with carnivores
