I am attempting to get one of my customers to setup an Oracle instance that is modular in that I can move the storage around to fit a particular hardware setup and have a consistent benchmark that they use in the real world to gauge performance. One of them is a debit card transaction clearing entity on multi-TB databases so latency REALLY matters there. Hopefully I'll have a couple of them setup within a week. At that point I may need help in getting the proper kernel trees and patch sets munged into a working kernel. That seems to be the spot where I fall over most of the time. Unfortunately I probably could not share this specific setup but it is likely that I can derive a version from it that can be opened.
