Try running your submits while watching a CPU load meter. Do this on a multi-CPU machine.
If all CPUs are busy, you are running as fast as possible. If one CPU is busy (around 50% usage on a dual-CPU system), parallel submits might help. If no CPU is 100% busy, the bottleneck is probably disk or network. wunder On 2/20/07 10:46 AM, "Jack L" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thanks to all who replied.
