Hello. I do believe that both desktop and server has disk cache turned on, but i will definitely confirm this in the morning. Also im aware that this impacts durability. ________________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 16, 2008 5:38 PM To: Derby Discussion Subject: Re: performance issue
