> I dont undersstand this "slow" stuff. We have a huge system > and it isnt slow at all. It's probably due to good hardware...or a tuned O/S. Example: software app "A" is using a linear search on a 1 million item list. Client's say it runs great ! software app "B" is using a binary search on a 1 million item list. Client's say it stinks, so slow - it's poorly written ! How can this be ? "A" runs on the latest Pentium processor. "B" runs on a Pentium II. Have a software performance problem ? Just throw better hardware at it.
