+Database
+--------
+Put `/server/awfy-server.config` in `/etc`, and edit it to point at your
+database. Afterwards just run `php migrate.php` to create the tables and run
+the migrations.  (Note: sometimes the database layout changes a bit. After
+pulling it is recommanded to run `php migrate.php` again. That will incremental
+adjust the database to the new layout, transforming existing entries.)
+
+Data Collector
+--------------
+Drop `website/UPDATE.PHP` and `website/internals.php` somewhere, and rename
+`UPDATE.PHP` to something secret. Make sure you don't have directory listings
+enabled.
+
+Slave DNS Config
+----------------
+Before running the benchmarks, add these lines to your `/etc/hosts` file and
+flush DNS cache. These host addresses are used by `benchmarks_remote.py`. This
+configuration is needed for all the slaves that use the remote or local
+benchmarks. Only the shell benchmarks don't need it.

+Data Processor
+--------------
+Put `awfy-server.config` in `/etc`, and edit it to point at your database and
+website/data folder. Then put `update.py` in a cronjob. It will dump files
+where appropriate. AWFY.com does this every 15min. It is not safe to run two
+instance at once. A sample wrapper script is provided as `run-update.sh`.
+
+update.py generates various JSON files:
+
+1. "raw" and "metadata" files cache database queries from run to run, so we
+   don't have to make expensive database queries.
+2. "aggregate" files are used for the front page.
+3. "condensed" files are used for one level of zooming, so users don't have to
+   download the raw data set right away.
+
+The metadata and raw JSON files are updated as needed. The aggregate and
+condensed files are always regenerated from the raw data.
+
+There is also a `monitor.py` script provided in the server folder. You can run
+this regularly to send e-mails for benchmarking machines that haven't sent
+results in a certain amount of time (this time is specified in
+`awfy-server.config`). It will send e-mail through the local SMTP server, using
+the "contact" field for each machine in the database. This field should be a
+comma-delimited list of e-mail addresses (i.e. "egg@yam.com,bob@egg.com").
+
+Website
+-------
+Put the files somewhere. Currently php is needed for `data.php`, which pulls the
+data from the correct location. You just need to update config file
+(`/etc/awfy-server.config`) to refer the 'data' folder that contains the
+json/js files dumped by update.py.
+
+Don't forget to replace the default machine number in website/awfy.js, which is
+the one that will show up in the first place. Note that AWFY's flot is slightly
+modified, so it might not work to just replace it with upstream flot.
