Oh, it is.

It doesn't have an I/O tests, since these usually don't have much to do with Python's performance, but rather that of the underlying OS and hardware. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Jan 19 2010) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: Try our new mxODBC.Connect Python Database Interface for free ! :::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
