Thank you for your answers.

So, if I install "CVSNT Low Performance Community Server 2.5.05 for Windows", it doesn't mean that this release is lower performance than CVSNT 2.5.04 or 2.5.03 ? (I don't remember there were two versions (low and high performance) with  v.2.5.03)

Too distincuish it from the high performance edition in Suite 2009.
Some marketing material on the differences and why they are important
will be available in a few weeks.  

The short explanation is that CVS Suite 2009 edition of CVSNT Server
uses a new architecture that is faster but also uses a manager process
that is not open source.  This provides:
* reduced lag on client performance while servers start
* allows the server processes to share information to improve
performance 

It is not possible to use CVSNT 2.8 without the manager process.
