We've been getting some very positive feedback about both the performance and stability of this release. At least one customer has seen 20%+ performance improvements over 7.22. It also has the advantage (over 7.22) of being on the monthly interim release cycle which provides improved turnaround time for reported problems. Matt Ledna ledna@informix.com
