We have installed a Oracle 7.3.4 Database with Patch Level 2 on a
Notebook ( IBM Thinkpad 760 CD) with 32 Mbyte Memory and Windows NT 3.51
with Service Pack 5. All works fine with 32 Bit Applications (in the
network or on the local machine) or with 16 Bit Applications from other
workstations in our Token Ring network. When we use 16 bit client
software on the notebook (where the database is installed) the
performance is very poor!! Although we know, that 32 Mbyte memory is not
very much, we think it is not the only reason.The program tnsping for
example needs about 30 seconds to respond that the connnection is ok
(the connection is over TCP, it doesnt't matter whether the notebook is
connected to our network or works in local mode). When we use tnsping
from a workstation in the network to the same database on the notebook
the response time is under 1 second!.
Has anybody some idea about the solution of the problem ?
thanks for help
