Re: A question about differences in performance between Mac and Windows
Are the machines equal in CPU, network card, connection speed, etc.? Is the PC real or virtual on the Mac? What is the database type?

A question about differences in performance between Mac and Windows
Hi list I have a standalone used as a frontal for requests to a DB. The results are compressed and base64encoded by a LC script on the server, and the standalone displays them in a table field after base64decode and decompress. On Mac, the process takes 0.25 second to 1 second (when the amount of data is important). On Windows 7, it takes at least 3 to 4 secs, no matter how much data. Is there any rational explanation for that, and possibly a way to speed up things on Windows ? My guess is that some system librairies are called for base64decode and decompress, which are significantly slower on Windows...
