Hello all I've been getting mixed answers on how fast the interconnect should be between the RAC clusters some say 100mb, GigE and infiniband i'm planning on using Oracle 10g for a Geographical information system database, currently I'm planning on using Sun Fire V280R's 2x 1.2Ghz 8GB mem in a 4 way RAC cluster has anyone deployed something similar on GigE and was was the response time like on big queries.

I'm planning on using Veritas Cluster File System and have it under ODM if it makes any difference--
