>>Though it would be a good test to port several production systems ( of
different nature ) to Oracle/ Some Compaq /2K and MsSQL Server/ Same Compaq
/2K, who has the time and money to do it?<<
Been there, done that for sister company. 200 GB database. Same 2-way Dell
box, running SQL 2000 and Oracle 8.1.7.
SQL choked with 10 users - response time was sufficient, but it won't scale.
MS SQL had 1 GB of RAM assigned at the time.
Oracle chugged along with 50 users - same response time. SGA of 400 MBs
(including db buffers).
Signed PO for Oracle last Friday...
