This will improve upon the network if you have the following equipment in place or you plan to upgrade it as well: 1- You are using a switch with gigabit port to connect your server directly to it
2- Your cable from the server to the switch supports gigabit communication

Subject:	Network Card Performance

Hi all,

My manager informed me today that they are planning on changing the network card on our Windows 2000 server from a 100MB card to a 1000MB card. The server has 3 oracle databases on it (all less than 500MB). It also hosts fileshares for the client-server applications that use the databases.

What kind of things would you monitor to see the impact this has? How much of a performance gain would you expect? (I would guess the answer is "It depends").

Perhaps some of the statspack experts here could tell me what changes they might expect in the statspack reports.

Thanks,
