Re: Poll: What percentage advantage are RDBMS vendors taking of the RM?

What you have asked is akin to, "How big is your database?" It is not a valid question in that it does not indicate what parameters you expect to be used. For example, do you mean a percent of "expected" features? Are they weighted by importance? Important to whom? For what purpose (E.g., OLTP, OLAP?) Why would anyone here be able to give a more valid answer than the thousands of practitioners alsewhere on the net? Isn't it best answered through careful unbiased research of the subject? As asked, it borders on being a silly question.
