We have a database system here, and not an OLTP helper app.
A database system must support all sorts of mixed usage from simple
OLTP to OLAP. Imho the usual separation on different servers gives more
headaches than are necessary.
Thus above statement can imho be true for one OLTP application, but not
for all applications on one db server.
