1011.0. "SYBASE/SMP performance and systems ?" by TYSON::KURATA () Thu Oct 17 1991 16:05

    Hi,
    
    We just got a request for information that asks for data on a SMP
    system that can support the SYBASE data base.  We are trying to
    determine if we have any particular advantages with RDB in the areas of
    performance.  If we decide to try to convince this customer that we are
    better and they should look at Rdb, we will have to prove that Rdb is
    better for a number of reasons.  The customer is currently enamored
    with TIPS.  Does anyone have any ideas on SYBASE performance
    on SMP machines ?   This may be a VAX or another system, the RFI
    mentions 24 processors.
