Feel free to name a bug that brings the iSeries down.  Most iSeries
crashes are apocryphal ("I know a guy who knows a guy...").  There are
exceptional cases.  Folks like Rob push the box to its limits (and we
love you for doing it, Rob!) and Al tends to hit the newest features,
which by definition are most prone to bugs.

And even then, my guess is you'll find about 1000 ways to crash a
Windows machine compared to every one that you can crash an iSeries.

This isn't the operating system.  This is an application, and it's not
even a native OS/400 application, it was ported from the Linux/Wintel
world.  You'll need to do better than this, especially since you're
talking about eight million documents.

And why did you put it in from of the customer without testing it?
Surely you didn't just load eight million documents into an untested
system and then show it to a client, did you?

In any case, since you insist it's undeployable, I'll hit my contacts at
IBM and see why they're shipping a product that doesn't work.
