Re[2]: BPCS 6.04 on an AS400 Model 300/2042

I appreciate all the input you've all sent.

We seem to be a fairly small shop in comparison to most of you.  We have
about 15 users.  Our response time on our current 9406-E45 running BPCS
4.01 is acceptable.  Didn't realize 6.04 would slow us down so
dramatically.

SSA has sent me the BPCS sizing questionnaire and we are in the process of
filling it out.  Guess we'll find out what they have to say.

I would have to agree.  We are running 6.0.2plf on a model
510-2143 512k mem
with 150 users and performance is bad especially in the
Billing and Shop
Floor Control areas...  We will probably move up...
