functionality is pretty much what you'd get from the other two drivers (except the datadirect driver that ships w/6.1 has a bug with unicode data in stored procedure OUTPUT vars, you can contact MM for updated drivers if this is an issue, neither ms or jTDS showed that issue which was why we tested jTDS actually). we didn't do any specific stability test but the speed tests were high load & ran for a couple of hours. nothing bad happened. we did inadvertently put the driver through some very minor sustained loading (forgot to swap it out & it was left & used on a development box for about 5 days or so). it is used in a couple of other products they've listed on their site. beyond that, no idea about its suitability for production. > comparative testing of these aspects as well as performance, or do you know > of any such testing that's been done? nope. are you volunteering? i recall that pete freitag blogged about this before: http://www.petefreitag.com/item/178.cfm maybe he's done some real load testing? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware: a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
