RE: BMT : informix vs. sybase

Hyun Try setting NOAGE to 1. Since 7.x Informix starts a single process = oninit, the priority of the process goes down with time, because Unix = believes it is a long process and should be deprioritized to let other = processes have a chance to execute. Setting NOAGE to 1 disables priority = ageing.

We had checked "TPS(Transaction per second)". SYBASE 11.0.2 INFORMIX 7.2.0 We found that TPS of informix is very high at the begining time. but get decreased tremendously. I think that Informix writes all data on the memory and=20 after memory is full, it transfers all data to a disk. The speed of transfering data to a disk is very slow. It is just my opinion. So, Do you have any idea on that ? this is my E-mail address htshin@hei.co.kr thank you !
