1612.0. "Performance of V2 ?" by STKHUV::HULTMAN (Sten A Hultman LEG/Sweden) Fri Oct 20 1989 11:55

    
    I will discuss DECwindows with a customer who is very concerned
    by the low performance of the current DECwindows version.
    I would need some statistics about the performance of V2.
    
    Anyone has any idea where I can get it ?

1612.1What are they REALLY SAYING?DELNI::MHARRISNetwrk Integ'n ProjectsFri Oct 20 1989 16:2412
    Are they REALLY concerned with DIGITAL's implementation performance
    statistics, or are they concerned with X11 performance?
    
    Are they using a LAN or WAN, X25 or sattelite?, etc.
    
    Many customers will see DECwindows as slow when they are using WAN
    lines. It's not DECwindows, it's X11 and there lines...
    
    What are they ACTUALLY SAYING?

1612.2Is V2 a performance release ?STKHUV::HULTMANSten A Hultman LEG/SwedenWed Oct 25 1989 12:2610
    This customer uses mostly applications distributet over a LAN.
    
    V2 offers obviously a number of new features but is it 
    to be regarded as a general performance release as well ?
    
    I have seen no figures on this subject.
