How does the overall performance of your engine compare to the previous 5.x version? Are you using the same hardware for the 7.x engine that you used for the 5.x engine? I can imagine that 7.x on faster (multiprocessor?) hardware outper- forms the previous engine by so much that the performance hit delivered by using the relay module is more or less neutralized. In our case, we cannot afford to buy new hardware. Since on several occasions people from Siemens-Nixdorf (our hardware and OS vendor) and from Informix told us that on our single processor machine there would be no noticeable performance benefit from 7.x, we have so far refrained from an upgrade. The relay module would certainly make things worse.
