RE: iSeries Imaging (was: Help me Justify iSeries)

Paul,

w/o ordering. However, if I only got 21 rows from a million row table I
must have had a where clause. <G> Like I said, it was a "quick" select.
However, I've also run 21-way joins (yes 21) with sub-second results.

With or without ordering? With or without a where clause?

Um, really, that's news to the servers I have with millions of rows in a
table. A quick select on a million row table on a P4 2Ghz w/786meg off a
40 gig ide drive (test machine I have sitting here) returned 21 rows in
18ms.
