Very useful stuff. Thanks a lot, Kevin.
Hi Noons,
You’re welcome…By the way, when I’m done sorting through the threat mail Oracle Legal has sent me I’ll be releasing Silly Little Oracle Benchmark (SLOB). That is to say, I’ve been side-tracked. I don’t want you tho think your Beta testing of the kit was a waste.
I figured on something like that. Unfortunate – and quite frankly, silly.
Will soon give SLOB a twist with 7.1 Aix and 11.2.0.3. Comparison with the previous baseline being the major target for me.
No worries, and thanks, Noons.
Holy c*ap Kevin, you’re indeed drinking the Kool-Aid. Good for you, nothing wrong in loving your employer. You’re a quick change artist, good one at that.
