I wondered the same thing, but then IIRC SQLServer was ruling the TPC roost in
2002 - and Oracle folks were busy explaining that it was a meaningless
benchmark <irony> I'm not sure if it remains a meaningless benchmark now 10g is
on top </irony>
I thought it was a pretty good paper - though I was intrigued by the method
used to determine how many dbas a site needed with dbas servicing not databases
but users.
