Mike Long posted an article about IBM's new database, DB2/2.
I'm not officially connected with this announcement, but I did
watch the Field Television Network broadcast Mike mentioned, and
I want to correct one error before folks raise their expectations
too high.

>Some of the code has seen a 10X speed increase because of tuning and
>32 bit performance

There was no claim made as to a 10X speed increase -- the claim was
a 10X QUALITY increase to the code.  Yes, there should be a real
speed increase due to the tuning and conversion to 32-bit (especially
with DDCS/2, the host gateway product), but as far as I know IBM
hasn't placed any number on that speediness.

Cheers,
Paul Zinn
