Actually I'd have thought that *provided only that* only one RBMS is running
at one time then this setup should be OK for a performance comparison
between the two systems. What it will most likely measure is your relative
dba skills in the 2 RDBMS systems but nevertheless it is a reasonable
performance test, much much better than relying on things like TPC-C.
just my opinion.
