- What enhancements are those? UPIALL or something extra? Does it require
- a particular version of the RDBMS?

- Anyway, what is that famous UPIALL? I know that it decreases amount of

- The original question was, WHY NetBIOS & SPX/IPX are faster than TCP/IP

- unchanged, I guess the relative order of the various protocols remains
- the same.
