Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> SPARC vs. RS/6000 - which has better performance/processor?
We are looking at new servers for our Oracle8i OLTP back-end. An IBM sales guy claimed that an RS/6000 is 'twice as fast' per processor running Oracle8i in an OLTP environment - a 6 processor RS/6000 is just as fast as a 12 processor SPARC.
What do y'all think about this?
