I have two systems, both Dual PII 400's. One is running NT with Workgroup Server 7.23, the other is running SCO with Dynamic Server 7.22. I have created a database using the same SQL on both systems, and both systems have similar onconfig settings. I have loaded 6 million records into the NT server, which took about 24 hours. I'm running the same program loading the same records into the SCO server now, and it's on pace to take 90 hours. Any thoughts? The records are being loaded by a 3rd computer running an ESQLC program.
