Sounds like something is wrong here. The data base doesn't appear to be
complex at all, and a Sun should certainly have enough horsepower to do the
job. Have you talked to RTI about your problem? I have found them helpful at
times.

Off hand, I would say that your best move would be improving performance in
the existing application. This might involve bringing in a consultant for
a couple of days, or sending someone to the performance seminar and fixing
the problem in-house.

CMU might be able to provide some help over the net.
