Interesting article but a couple months back Infoweek carried an
article that stated that the beta version was missing the optimizer.
If I was in charge of the project I would want the otimizer beta tested
also, but just because I think all the code should be beta tested does
not mean MS's approach is wrong. It does however raise questions about
why the beta engine is claimed to be non-optimizing. It could be that
MS is having trouble getting the optimizer to work correctly, or they
could be planning to spring a surprise. In another few months we will
find out.
