Have you looked at the 7.3 configuration file vs. the 8.0. It's
possible that the 7.3 file is tweakled better then the 8.0. Have you
anaylzed the tables after loading the data into 8.0

Hi,

We are experiencing slow performance on 8 Beta 2 Dev3 on Win32 and are
trying to determine why. Any info is appreciated.

We have a Web Server and a DB server both running Win2KServer with all
service packs and critical updates.

An ASP page on the Web Server hits the DB Server with a simple query that
returns 205 rows and makes the ASP page delivered to the user about 350K.

On an ethernet lan a client pc perceives just under 1 sec performance with
the following DB Server configuration:
PIII 550Mhz
256MB RAM
7200 RPM HD
cygwin
Postgresql 7.1.3
PGODBC 7.3.2

We set up another DB Server with 8 beta (same Web Server, same network, same
client pc) and now the client pc perceives response of just over 3 sec with
the following DB server config:
PIII 700 Mhz
448MB RAM
7200 RPM HD
8 Beta 2 Dev3 on Win32 running as a service

Is the speed decrease because it's a beta?
Is the speed decrease because it's running on Win instead of cygwin?

We did not install cygwin on the new DB Server.

Thanks,

Mike
