Performance of an Oracle 10g R2 Database Import Environment More details are available at TechDocs : http://www.ibm.com/support/techdocs/atsmastr.nsf/WebIndex/WP101507
This paper describes a specific customer setup of importing data into an Oracle 10g R2 database running Red Hat Linux under z/VM 5.3 on a System z. It compares the performance of the import process on System z9 with System z10. It shows an improvement of a factor of two when migrating from System z9 to System z10. The factor of two is based on the compute intensive workload which was neither burdened by heavy network load nor by the storage server which handled the data rates of up to 250 MB/sec easily. This very impressive result helps confirm that upgrading to the IBM System z10 can significantly enhance the capabilities of enterprise IT customers.
