I'm trying to optimize UNIFY running on a Tower 32/600.  I was wondering
if anyone in Netland could advise me on the following:

1) How much would it help to put our 60 megabyte database on a separate
file partition, avoiding UNIX's file system overhead?

2) What is the optimal setting for the system parameters given that we
have 8 megabytes of memory?

Also, has anyone had any experience with UNIFY's fourth generation language,
Accel.  (I'm not sure if that's the name or not, just guessing.)

Thanks for any information.

P.S. I'm no longer at this address; please send replies to :
