As anyone done performance benchmark testing with solaris sparc/intel linux. I once read a post here, which had benchmarking test results for using different filesystem like xfs, ext3, ext2, ufs etc. i couldn't find that link anymore and google is failing on me, so anyone have the link handy.

Personally, I've been unimpressed by Dell/Xeon; I think the Sun might do better than you think, comparitively. On all the Dell servers I've used so far, I've not seen performance that comes even close to the hardware specs. -- -Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
