Yes, I've tried to use OWG on NT 4.0 and its performance is very poor especially, on inserts and updates. SQL Server and SQL Anywhere were about 20 times faster ( I run an update query on a 16K row table).

When I asked Oracle what they thought of it they suggested I'd get a service contract or they won't answer.

Very classy indeed.
