I expect the processors in this system to be faster than what I was using but this system does have about a third of
thenumber of spindles I had previously. In my spare time I am trying to complete a TPC-E implementation (dbt5) to the
currentspec revision and it is supposed to have significantly less disk requirements than the TPC-C derivative (dbt2) I
wasusing in the past. If we believe TPC-E achieved all its goals, I think it would be appropriate to start using that
assoon as the kit is ready.
Anyway want to help with the kit? :) It's the C stored functions that need to be revised.
