Re: Informix WGE with IBM DB2 Gold Bundle
A short joking exchange about the Informix WGE with DB2 Gold Bundle thread. Obnoxio The Clown quipped about UPDATE STATISTICS, Data Goob answered with DB2 equivalents (BUFFERPOOL, RUNSTATS), and Captain Pedantic remarked this is an Informix group. Data Goob replied he had understood the joke. No substantive answer.

For DB2 it would be:
Have you increased the BUFFERPOOL?
Or RUNSTATS?
:-)
Bonus round: db2pd == onstat

I think the point he was making - with too much subtlety evidently - is
"This is an Informix newsgroup, and we don't give a shit about books on
DB2".
