I thought that Great Bridge's August benchmarks were rather skewed. They only used one particular test from the AS3AP suite. That was the basis for their headline figure of 4-5 times the performance of the competition. I was however impressed by the TPC-C results. MySQL and Interbase were unable to complete them. PostgreSQL showed almost identical performance over a range of loads to Proprietary 1 (version 8.1.5, on Linux) and Proprietary 2 (version 7.0, on NT). -- Pete Forman -./\.- Disclaimer: This post is originated Western Geophysical -./\.- by myself and does not represent [EMAIL PROTECTED] -./\.- the opinion of Baker Hughes or http://www.crosswinds.net/~petef -./\.- its divisions.
