Re: INFORMIX ONLINE-DSA / DEC ALPHA 2100

This has been discussed extensively before, and you may want to search dejanews (www.dejanews.com) or the library at www.iiug.org to see if you can find something. I think the general consensus was that you have to work hard on tuning DSA 7.x, but if you do you should get the same or sometimes better performance than on 5.02 even on a single processor machine. If you upgrade to a multiprocessor machine with multiple disks/diskcontrollers your options for tuning and resulting performance should both be much better. Others may be able to give concrete advice again.
