Performance is really no different than the full version. I have 5 systems out there with 4 users on each server and the performance is more than adequate.
Indeed. MSDE is just as powerful as SQL Server as far as the query engine goes, etc. The only difference performance-wise is a built-in throttle/semaphore that prevents more than 5 queries from executing simultaneously. You'll see notes about this in the event log if you hit it. For many DB network apps(which don't have constant DB queries) with 1-10 network users, you can still use MSDE without a problem. -- Derek _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
