Microsoft Corp.'s SQL Server 2000 database, which is
set to ship within a month, suffered a double embarrassment this week.
Record TPC-C benchmark numbers, which Microsoft has touted for the
past five months, were scratched from the official records after the
Transaction Processing Council found the results "noncompliant." And
IBM published numbers twice as high as Microsoft's with its own DB2.
