In the first place - your hardware configuration just plain sucks for NT. It will also suck for Linux, just less. Oracle on NT is far better off with a single, faster CPU than 2 slower CPUs. You have everything, including the OS, swap, oracle binaries, online redo, archived redo, rbs, temp, indexes and data on the same RAID 5 volume. Do you typically configure file servers? Get yourself at least 4 distinct volumes on separate mount points on separate physical disks. Developer databases work just fine on a JBOD configuration. Btw, you were expecting to compare 8.1.5/NT with 8.1.7/Linux? LOL. let the flames begin.
