Hi Ken,

Most likely it wouldn't make a difference because in properly design system all the processing is done on the server and only small result set is returned to an application. It could make difference if your application exchange huge amount of data with server.

> I'm curious if the speed of the NIC cards (100MB vs Gigabit) has a significant impact on performance in a dual server system where the application runs on one server and SQL is installed on the second server. I've had 2 people tell me it doesn't really matter all that much. Anyone have any experience with this?
