- I would like to consider shifting this to unix, using the DEC platforms.
- I understand unix has a flat loading curve as the number of users
- increases, but this isn't my situation. What I need is the lower part
- of this load curve to match or exceed the performance the NLM would have
- provided on the selected platform.
-
- Without starting wars over whose system is better, I would like to know
- what you have found out, in terms of benchmarks or use, about which
- Ultrix box will give me equivalent performance in my situation.
-
- Also, how close to the top of the list is Ultrix in terms of when new
- releases of Oracle are ported to different platforms?
-
- Your choice to post or email me. TIA
