Given the data rate above, this sounds like they're quoting a shared nothing data model on a cluster, not a single host setup. You are interested in a single host setup, correct? Did you ask for a contact at their customer's organization so you could at least attempt to verify these performance claims? Or did they state these numbers are from an internal test system? With no way for you to verify these claims, they are, literally, worthless, as this vendor is asking you to take their claims on faith. Faith is for religion, not a business transaction. -- Stan _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
