Hi All --
I searched through many of the Access postings for any information on this one. I could not find anything that related directly to my question.
Does anybody know of any "documentation" on Processor Utilization by MSAccess2K (A2K)?
I am trying to document (by anybody outside of my group -- there seems to be a trust issue somewhere) for my boss whether or not A2K can utilize 4 processors on a server or not. A2K is loaded on a server with 4 Processors and there is an argument (we're upgrading servers) about whether or not Access is a Processor Hog or not. I'm sure A2K runs faster on the server but my boss also wants to know whether or not it is process or memory that is doing the job.
I am leaning towards having SQL Server loaded (the right way in my opinion) to store / process / retrieve the data correctly but some users within my group are stuck on the idea that using A2K on a Server with 4 Processors and 4 Gig of memory is the best way to utilize a server (I am of a differing opinion and need to substantiate why it should NOT be this way).
Can anybody post info or point me in the right direction on:
-- Processor utilization by A2K - documentation or your opinions will be helpful.
Thanks for any and all assistance.
