| I assume you expected to be much faster? I am sure you were more
expensive. 8-(
I have not seen any up-to-date NT SQL on Alpha data. The 2100 TPC
results were withdrawn. I believe there is AlphaServer 1000A data.

I believe David Hunter (AMCUCS::HUNTER) is the guru you want.

| 4823.3 | Thanks very much for the info. | STOWOA::BLANCHARD | | Tue Sep 03 1996 15:41 | 5 |
| Many thanks to both of you....Yes, you would think it should be
faster:-( I'll Contact David.
Best Regards,

| 4823.4 | some more data | TROOA::MSCHNEIDER | Nothing witty to say | Tue Sep 03 1996 17:03 | 15 |
| Current fastest system we have running MS-SQL TPC tests is a 4 processor
Prioris ZX with 166Mhz PPro processors. The 2100 5/300 numbers are so bad
relative to the Prioris numbers that they're not worth discussing.
I've not seen anything on the 4100 platform, but even if faster than
the Prioris numbers, don't expect to compete on price/performance
relative to Intel-based NT servers.
See the comparison of a Compaq 5000 to an AlphaServer 1000A 5/300 in
Network Computing to give you some idea what you're up against these
days.

| Also suggest that if you are using SQL 6.5 you make sure you have
Service Pack 1 installed.
See note 560.40 in RICKS::DECHIPS for a discussion of the lack of
optimization of SQL 6.5 for Alpha without SP1.

Where Do I get the sp1 for SQL Server 6.5?
The only SP I could find on MS home page were for NT and Windows 95.
