That is what I have been told also. However, they do state: <quote> Obtain performance figures for the same application, and its Web enablement equivalents, in the Windows Server environment. We drove the Windows Serverbased system to between 84-percent utilization and 97-percent utilization, which was sufficient to roughly parallel the mainframe performance (and gave an advantage to the mainframe in the energy comparison, so that our comparison would be on the conservative side). </quote> -- John ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
