LINUX or AIX?? Which performs better for Essbase

We are looking at hardware and we trying to decide between AIX and LINUX. Outside of the cost difference I thought I heard Essbase runs faster on LINUX vs AIX. Is this an accurate statement? Are there any white papers comparing these?

that's what i thought.  thanks for confirming.  it sounds like i might be able to use parallels ALSO later on to access the windows bootcamp partition, based on reading another thread.

  • Which performs better for windows development, bootcamp or parallels?

    I have an imac at home and am using parallels to host a w7 vm, wherein I do some web and db development.  It is quite sluggish at times.  I think i may need to tweak the config to perhaps allocate more ram to it but i'm not sure.  I just picked up a macbook pro gen2 i7 and before I install a w7 vm or parttition i was wondering which is better, parallels or bootcamp?  I do like the interactivity that parallels gives me with respect to files between the w7 vm and lion, but am wondering it that is perhaps the achilles heal when it comes to performance.
    what's the preferred route by other developers out there?
    Thanks!

  • AMD vs Core I7 - which performs better for Adobe Products?

    I'm currently running an AMD System (Phenom 2 x4 3.2Ghz, 8GB DDR3 PC10666, ATI 3870 512MB, Windows Ultimate 64bit, WD 120GB 10k RPM)
    and I'm wondering if it's worth purchasing and building a new, intel Core i7-920 system. I know the higher end, 970 would be better, but I don't feel like dropping $1k on a processor - so 920 is what I'm looking at.
    I would like to know (from users who have used, or are familiar with both platforms) which system performs better with the Adobe production suite and if it's worth the investment to switch from AMD to Intel. Does Hyper Threading affect the way AE / Premiere render? Will I notice a difference in speed from 8GB to 12/24GB for memory (for AE / Pr)?
    I would also like any suggestions on graphics cards (FireGL vs Quadro or GTX vs Radeon) to boost performance. I'm not much of a gamer and I would like to concentrate more of power on production. Right now I'm using a gaming card (an older one at that) and I would like to know if buying a newer one will boost performance for AE / Pr.
    Any help, tips, or suggestions would be great!
    Thanks,
    Drew

    I would recommend Intel processors over AMD for Adobe products.
    Does Hyper Threading affect the way AE / Premiere render?
    I can't talk for Premiere. For AE, it's perhaps marginal compared to the number of physical cores. And could be in some cases counter-productive if it tricks AE's multiprocessing system into believing there are twice as many cores, because of the way AE assigns RAM to the rendering instances it launches for each core (when "Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously" is enabled in Preferences).
    Will I notice a difference in speed from 8GB to 12/24GB for memory (for AE / Pr)?
    Yes, 8 GB is actually the absolute minimum you want for a quad core system (2 GB per core).
    After that, it depends on the content. For HD sized Comps, large source files and/or 32 bpc processing, having more RAM would lead to better performance and reliability.
    I would also like any suggestions on graphics cards (FireGL vs Quadro
    or GTX vs Radeon) to boost performance. I'm not much of a gamer and I
    would like to concentrate more of power on production.
    In AE, OpenGL previews are meant to provide a smoother/more responsive experience when interacting with the application. It won't help with render times in most cases. A medium to high end consumer level card should be fine. No need to sell the house for one of the pro level models. Keep an eye to the list of officially supported card/driver combinations.

  • Subquery vs UNION, which is better for performance?

    I want to know which in better for performance using a subquery method or a UNION?
    Any information would be helpful and appreciated!

    Hi,
    It depends on the SQL statments and each case is different from an other one. Take a look at the oracle doc: "Designing and Tuning for Performance".

  • Which is better for bulk message scenario in sap xi RFC or Proxy

    which is better for bulk message scenario in ( RFC or Proxy ) ?
    Edited by: prabhatxi on Aug 6, 2010 4:44 PM

    Proxy will alwaays be better option in this case, as it is adapter less framework, and communication happens directly with XI central integration engine. So it is always fast communication and gives good performance.
    But still you should consider other factors, you may consider using RFC as well, as sometime we go for RFC/IDOC as this are the standard interfaces already available rather than creating structure...
    May be you can share more info on what type/volume data are you planning to send via XI?
    Hope this cleart your doubt..

  • Which is better for physical therapy graduate student, a MacBook air or MacBook pro?

    Which is better for a physical therapy graduate student, a MacBook air or MacBook pro?

    Macbook Air
    I cannot see you using strenuous applications to help you with a Physical Therapy Degree.
    Have a think of whether you want an 11" or 13".
    I'd recommend the 13" because although the 11" is perfect for taking notes in class etc.; when it comes to performing as a desktop and not sitting on your lap, it can seem too small.
    The 13" is the best of both worlds. You can keep the portability and the power in one.
    Make sure you get a large enough SSD, they always fill up fast with documents and possibly downloaded text books etc.
    With the 13" if you decide to create a innovative project or a collection of photos, you can also use more RAM-consuming applications like iPhoto and iMovie, or even Aperture without worrying about freezing.

  • Which is better for gaming and why?

    Hi,
    I was researching budget gaming laptops(around $1000, INR 55000) and came up with two choices.....
    1)HP Pavilion g6z-1d00 Notebook PC
    http://shopping2.hp.com/en_US/home-office/-/products/Laptops/HP-Pavilion/A2B39AV?HP-Pavilion-g6z-1d0...
    2)HP Envy 14-2130nr Notebook PC
    http://shopping2.hp.com/en_US/home-office/-/products/Laptops/HP-ENVY/QE295UA?HP-ENVY-14-2130nr-Noteb...
    Could anybody please tell me which is better for gaming (main purpose and best performance)?
    The HP Envy looks great but I don't know much about AMD Quad Core.....
    Also, is it possible to upgrade the graphics card on the HP Envy ( AMD Radeon 6630 to a better one) via a HP centre?
    It seems to run most games quite well, but I need it to be able to play new games for at least 4 years more (college), while not factoring in the costs for any possible graphics card upgrade....
    Please help!!

    Thanks Huffer _ very useful.
     I wasn't aware that there was a heat problem with the i7 processors, my dv8 runs at around 42 to 52 degrees, mind you I don't really put it under much load. I use it to play Blu-ray ISO files on my projector and for photo editing (Adobe CS4), it's an 820QM.
     I have also changed the thermal compound to ICDiamond and drilled holes in the speaker cover to improve air flow, that made a difference too.
     @ abhishekmaha
     Don't take my comment to seriously, although I think it has some truth to it, it was meant to poke a bit of fun at you. 
     Heat has always been one of the biggest factors when it comes to any computer, designers try to make them thinner, lighter and cheaper and those types don't work for gaming very well. They're OK for the occasional one, but not on a regular basis. I believe that if you game on any machine that was not meant for it, you will not get 4 years out of it _ 2 years.
     I wish I could tell you different, but I am not going to lie to you.
     Heat basically affects 3 things on a laptop, the solder that holds the components on the motherboard, any mechanical moving parts, eg the hard drive, fan _ and the battery. You can remove the battery to prolong its life when gaming.
     Heat breaks down the solder over time and the mother board simply stops working as far as the hard drive, it stops spinning because the tiny bearing(s) in there dry out and seize up.
     If you don't want to use a cooling mat then prop up the back of the laptop, hanging it over the edge of the table will expose the fan intake, but will block off other vents.
     60 degrees is a bit warm too, 50 is better or rather, the cooler the better. What ever machine you get, make a note of what the temps are when you first boot up and when it's hot. The idea is to get an average so you can judge when it is dangerously getting hot.
     P.S. Be sure and give Huffer a kudos too.

  • Which is better for my needs?

    Hi there.
    I was wondering which is better for my needs? I'm not very familiar on all of this, so any info will help.
    I play a lot of games like World of Warcraft, and I do some video editing, + other practical things. I'm debating over to get the 8 GB Memory with a 512 MB Graphics card, or get the 4 GB Memory with the 1 GB Graphics card for the extra money. I'd like to keep costs as low as possible, so I'm also interested in the price/performance ratio.

    First, take any iMac model with the standard 4GB memory. You can get top quality memory from Other World Computing or Crucial, amongst others, for about half of what Apple charges. It's easy to put in yourself with Apple provided directions or OWC has video's too. I added two 2GB memory cards in the two empty memory slots to bring my iMac to 8GB.
    It sounds like you want the larger screen. I opted for the 21.5" screen with the same graphics 6770M as the low end 27", and have been pleased with it. This, for me, was the price performing iMac.

    all pretty identical tho I would go with cs, just because I

    For some reason that link I gave you isn't working right now, but it was today, weird. I would get Tomcat simple because sun uses it in its examples and recommends it. Here's sun's link then, it's probably more useful anyway. http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/

    Which is better for newbies, Jgrasp or Netbeans? I need something that explains errors more thoroughly than Jgrasp.

    Here's my code with 3 errors. Now bear in mind that my program has compiled completely and ran correctly up to this method. All I'm trying to do with this method is get the average of all grades in a multi-array. I researched and found some code that was similar to what I needed to do but it's not working out yet. All other methods in my program work perfectly but I can't get this one to compile.

  • Which is better for music production: macbook air or pro?

    Which is better for music production: macbook air or pro?

    The MacBook Pro has higher specifications, depending
    on the model, and then CTO additional upgrades.
    The Air does not have a Retina display, but has lesser
    specs, so that may make a difference. They still offer a
    low-end MB/Pro w/ optical drive, w/o Retina; specs vary;
    it may work in your instance. You'd have 14 days to take
    a new Apple computer back, so keep that in mind.
    Good luck!

    In view of the fact that there are numerous applications that run properly while creating a lot of internal heat in a MBP indicates that it does not follow that heat is an inhibiting factor (within designed parameters).  Thus my comment is certainly not opion, rather fact.  You certainly are entitled to your reply but a third party reader should be be apprised of what the facts are.

    Some educational site are behind the times.  At times, they require software that isn't available on the ipad.  You should visit an apple store and try the educational site with the ipad.  Considering that you have an iMac, I'd lean in the direction of the iPad.
