Yes! Oracle is a GIANT SQUEELER! However, I'm pretty sure that all relational databases are. Remember you're dealing with something that spends all of it's time talking to the disk! This is why DB tuning is SOOOOO IMPORTANT. The other thing you can do is buy really fast disk drives (fast & wide SCSI, etc). You really do have to select the right computer/peripherals for the job. This ain't no DISKO, ya know!
