<==> Unfortunately, the one after that was done after the

<==> No, the one after it that was flawless in every regard,

<==> <==> LoL! The "Winter Corporation"? Which databases

<==> <==>
<==> <==> The Olympics one that IBM did on DB2?
<==> <==> The Terraserver database?
<==> <==> The SETI one?
<==> <==> 2500 Transactions per second is the fastest they did? A
<==> <==> conservative
<==> <==> estimate of page hits per second ( "transaction"

<==> <==> i know of is 8400/second.
<==> <==>
<==> <==> :-) Oh, yea, and How much did Oracle pay Winter

<==> <==> evaluation?
<==> <==>
<==> <==> Inquiring minds want to know! :-D

Interesting. For those of you who haven't read the article, it says that a survey made by the Winter Corporation showed that the top 10 OLTP databases on UNIX in the following categories: "Most Data", "Highest Workload", "Most Rows/Records" were all Oracle databases.
Does anyone know of similar surveys on other platforms? In particular Windows NT / Windows 2000?
And how about on the Sinclair, the Tandy, and the Commoder PET? :)
