RE: QqryDegree system value

[pytel@xxxxxxxxxx]

In 1996 I was one of the authors of redbook "Database Parallelism on the
AS/400, SG24-4826-00",
available here: http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg244826.html

It has a chapter on database SMP support and what it can do for you
(including performance measurements).
There were multiple enhancements since that time, but most of it is valid.
You might want to have a look.

Has anyone on this list benchmarked the improved proformance using SMP.  If
so how much did it improve performance?

You need an n-way system (which you have), and option 26 of OS/400 which is
an optional, billable feature.

IMHO, anyone with an n-way system should purchase this feature.  Retail
price is $15,000.
